Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Prologue These vulnerabilities have been found and chained by DCODX-AI. Validation of the exploit chain has been confirmed manually. Summary A persistent stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the customhotkeys functionality of the application. An authenticated attacker (or one who can trick a user/administrator into updating their customhotkeys) can inject JavaScript code that executes in other users’ browsers when those users load any page using the templates/base.html template. Because the application exposes an API token endpoint (/api/current-user/token) to the browser and lacks robust CSRF protection on some API endpoints, the injected script may fetch the victim’s API token or call token reset endpoints — enabling full account takeover and unauthorized API access. This vulnerability is of critical severity due to the broad impact, minimal requirements for exploitation (authenticated user), and the ability to escalate privileges to full account compromise.…

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2026-22033 Advisory: Label Studio is vulnerable to full account takeover by chaining Stored XSS + IDOR in User Profile via custom_hotkeys field IDs: CVE-2026-22033, GHSA-2mq9-hm29-8qch Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2026-22033 (revision 3, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:36 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: High (CVSS 8.6) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - PyPI label-studio: affected <= 1.22.0 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `python -m pip show label-studio`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active. ## Supported action No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on label-studio. - Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed. ## Rollback considerations - Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward. ## Unresolved questions - Which deployments run an affected version? - Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority. - Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production. ## Sources - Verified: https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-2mq9-hm29-8qch (OSV record GHSA-2mq9-hm29-8qch lists affected ranges: PyPI label-studio >=0 <=1.22.0) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-2mq9-hm29-8qch (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-2mq9-hm29-8qch lists affected ranges: PyPI label-studio >=0 <=1.22.0) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
