Craft Commerce is Vulnerable to Stored XSS while updating Order Status from Orders Table
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.

Description
Summary
A stored XSS vulnerability exists when a user tries to update the Order Status from the Commerce Orders Table. The Order Status Name is rendered without proper escaping, allowing script execution to occur.
Proof of Concept
Required Permissions
- Admin access (to edit/create Order Statuses)
Steps to Reproduce
- Log in with an admin account
- Navigate to Commerce → Settings → Order Statuses
- Create a new order status
- Set the Name field to:
<img src=x onerror="alert('Order Statuses XSS')">
- Save the order status
- Go to Commerce → Orders (make sure you placed any orders)
- From the left panel, select any Order Status (e.g., New)
- Select any order from the orders table → Click on the Gear Icon → then click "Update Order Status..."
- Notice the XSS execution

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for craftcms/commerce. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update craftcms/commerce to 4.10.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-mqxf-2998-c6cp is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether GHSA-mqxf-2998-c6cp is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to GHSA-mqxf-2998-c6cp. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-mqxf-2998-c6cp in your dependencies?
O3 detects GHSA-mqxf-2998-c6cp across Packagist dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
