Advisories for Pypi/Nicegui package

A directory traversal vulnerability in NiceGUI's App.add_media_files() allows a remote attacker to read arbitrary files on the server filesystem.

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the ui.interactive_image component of NiceGUI (v3.3.1 and earlier). The component renders SVG content using Vue's v-html directive without any sanitization. This allows attackers to inject malicious HTML or JavaScript via the SVG <foreignObject> tag.

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in ui.add_css, ui.add_scss, and ui.add_sass functions in NiceGUI (v3.3.1 and earlier). These functions allow developers to inject styles dynamically. However, they lack proper sanitization or encoding for the JavaScript context they generate. An attacker can break out of the intended <style> or <script> tags by injecting closing tags (e.g., </style> or </script>), allowing for the execution of arbitrary JavaScript.

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) risk exists in NiceGUI when developers render unescaped user input into the DOM using ui.html(). Before version 3.0, NiceGUI does not enforce HTML or JavaScript sanitization, so applications that directly combine components like ui.input() with ui.html() without escaping may allow attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the user’s browser. Same holds for ui.chat_message with HTML content. Applications that directly reflect user input via ui.html() (or ui.chat_message …

Once a user logins to one browser, all other browsers are logged in without entering password. Even incognito mode.

NiceGUI is an easy-to-use, Python-based UI framework. A local file inclusion is present in the NiceUI leaflet component when requesting resource files under the /_nicegui/{version}/resources/{key}/{path:path} route. As a result any file on the backend filesystem which the web server has access to can be read by an attacker with access to the NiceUI leaflet website. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.4.21. Users are advised to upgrade. There are …
