{"id":"CVE-2026-126362","aliases":[],"url":"https://o3.security/vulnerability/CVE-2026-126362","summary":"Astro: Reflected XSS via unescaped slot names in @astrojs/svelte","details":"## Summary\n\nThe `@astrojs/svelte` renderer wraps slotted content passed to Svelte components in an `<astro-slot>` element, and writes the slot name into its `name` attribute without HTML escaping. A slot name containing `\"` could end the attribute and inject arbitrary HTML into the page.\n\nFor example, a page that takes a slot name from the request:\n\n```astro\n---\nimport Tabs from '../components/Tabs.svelte';\nconst tab = Astro.url.searchParams.get('tab');\n---\n<Tabs client:load active={tab}><div slot={tab}>…</div></Tabs>\n```\n\nrendered with a Svelte 5 component that renders its snippets by name:\n\n```svelte\n<script>\n\tlet { active, ...snippets } = $props();\n</script>\n{@render snippets[active]?.()}\n```\n\nwould output a `tab` value such as `x\"><img src=x onerror=alert(1)>` as live HTML.\n\n## Impact\n\nReflected cross-site scripting. An attacker who gets a user to open a crafted link can run JavaScript on the site's origin, but only in applications where all of the following are true:\n\n- The page passes request-controlled input (such as a query parameter) as a slot name.\n- The Svelte component is hydrated with a `client:*` directive. For non-hydrated components the slot wrapper is removed from the output, together with its `name` attribute.\n- The Svelte component renders the attacker-chosen slot, which in practice means a Svelte 5 component that renders snippets by a dynamic name. Components that never render the slot only output Astro's already escaped fallback template.\n\nThis is the `@astrojs/svelte` counterpart of GHSA-8hv8-536x-4wqp (CVE-2026-50146), which fixed the same issue in `astro` core. The same unescaped value was also used when hydrating the component in the browser.\n\n## Affected versions\n\n`@astrojs/svelte` >= 5.7.3, <= 9.1.1.\n\n## Patches\n\nFixed in `@astrojs/svelte` 9.1.2. Slot names are now HTML-escaped in the server renderer and in the client-side hydration code.\n\n## Workarounds\n\nUpgrade to `@astrojs/svelte` 9.1.2 or later. Before upgrading, do not use request-controlled input as a slot name, or map it to a fixed set of known slot names before passing it to a component.\n\n## Credits\n\nReported by @manus-pi.","published":"2026-11-12T22:34:04Z","modified":"2026-11-12T22:45:03.571627159Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","name":"@astrojs/svelte","fixedVersion":"9.1.2"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/5e476365378e41aa2745d003b2383d02008d7b44","label":"withastro/astro@5e47636"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/withastro/astro/security/advisories/GHSA-f4j9-crrj-867q"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/withastro/astro/commit/5e476365378e41aa2745d003b2383d02008d7b44"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/withastro/astro"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/withastro/astro/releases/tag/@astrojs/svelte@9.1.2"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-11-12T22:45:03.571627159Z"}}
