What is CVE-2026-38725?

CVE-2026-38725 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in n/a, published on 28 Aug 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

xipblog module v2.0.1 and before for PrestaShop allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript via the name and content parameters in ajax.php. The input is stored in the database without HTML sanitization and rendered in Smarty templates without output escaping, resulting in Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). When an administrator reviews comments in the back office, the payload executes with admin-level session context, leading to full store compromise.

Weakness: CWE-79
