An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-21580 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Atlassian Confluence Data Center. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-21580/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-21580/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-21580","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-21580/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-21580","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-88w8-m3v4-74h6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Confluence Data Center","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary JavaScript and escalate privileges in Confluence Data Center and Server via stored XSS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"atlassian","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"This Critical severity Stored XSS, PrivEsc (Privilege Escalation), and Security Misconfiguration vulnerability was introduced in versions 7.1.1, 7.4.0, 7.13.0, 7.17.0, 7.19.0, 8.0.0, 8.5.0, 8.9.0, 9.0.1, 9.1.0, 9.2.0, 9.3.1, 9.4.0, 9.5.1, 10.0.2, 10.1.0 and 10.2.0 of Confluence Data Center and Server.\r\n\r\nThis Stored XSS, PrivEsc (Privilege Escalation), and Security Misconfiguration vulnerability, with a CVSS Score of 8.6, allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary HTML or JavaScript code on a victims browser, perform actions as a higher-privileged user, and to get into the system utilizing loopholes exposed from security best-practices being overlooked.\r\n\r\nAtlassian recommends that Confluence Data Center and Server customers upgrade to latest version, if you are unable to do so, upgrade your instance to one of the specified supported fixed versions:\r\n Confluence Data Center and Server 9.2: Upgrade to a release greater than or equal to 9.2.21\r\n\r\n Confluence Data Center and Server 10.2: Upgrade to a release greater than or equal to 10.2.13\r\n\r\nSee the release notes ([https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-release-notes-327.html]).
