What is CVE-2026-32757?

CVE-2026-32757 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in admidio, published on 19 Mar 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

Admidio is an open-source user management solution. In versions 5.0.6 and below, the eCard send handler uses a raw $_POST['ecard_message'] value instead of the HTMLPurifier-sanitized $formValues['ecard_message'] when constructing the greeting card HTML. This allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript into greeting card emails sent to other members, bypassing the server-side HTMLPurifier sanitization that is properly applied to the ecard_message field during form validation. An attack can result in any member or role receiving phishing content that appears legitimate, crossing from the web application into recipients' email clients. This issue has been fixed in version 5.0.7.

Weakness: CWE-79
