CVE-2026-55466: Snipe-IT vulnerable to stored XSS via inline-served attachment

August 28, 2026

A low-privilege user can store an active-content payload as an asset attachment and have it served inline, same-origin, with an active Content-Type, achieving stored XSS. The application sanitizes uploads only when PHP finfo detects image/svg+xml. By submitting an XHTML document whose finfo MIME is text/xml (an allowed extension), the svg-sanitize branch is skipped, the is stored raw, and the inline-serve path returns it as text/xml; charset=utf-8 with Content-Disposition: inline — which the browser renders as a live XHTML document and executes. The dedicated StorageHelper::allowSafeInline() whitelist that should have constrained inline-renderable types is never wired into the serve path.
