Description
Statmatic is a Laravel and Git powered content management system (CMS). From 6.0.0 to before 6.2.3, a stored XSS vulnerability in content titles allows authenticated users with content creation permissions to inject malicious JavaScript that executes when viewed by higher-privileged users. Malicious user must have an account with control panel access and content creation permissions. This vulnerability can be exploited to allow super admin accounts to be created. This has been fixed in 6.2.3.

Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for statamic/cms, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update statamic/cms to 6.2.3 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-25759 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Escape or sanitise the affected output on the server side rather than relying on client-side filtering, and add a Content-Security-Policy that blocks inline script execution so injected markup cannot run even if it reaches the page.
