CVE-2026-44665
Description
A flaw was found in fast-xml-builder, a software component used to create XML documents from JSON data. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to inject unauthorized attributes into the generated XML or HTML output. By crafting malicious input that includes quotes in attribute values without proper entity processing, an attacker can manipulate the structure of the output. This could lead to unintended information disclosure or alteration of how content is displayed.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
