Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-84683 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 for RHEL 8. 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-2026-84683/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84683/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-84683","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-84683/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-84683","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3p43-vjq9-4h46"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["account_takeover","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ansible Automation Platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Stored XSS in Ansible Automation Platform allows attackers to execute JavaScript in higher-privileged users' sessions via malicious ANSI hyperlinks in job outputs.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"A flaw was found in Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform's automation-\ncontroller.
