Maloja error page XSS vulnerability
What to do
Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (malojaserver 3.2.2), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.
This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description
As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.
Impact The error page for a missing path echoes the path back to the user. If this contains HTML, an attacker could execute a script on the user's machine inside the Maloja context and perform authorized actions like scrobbling or deleting scrobbles. This does not affect the security of your server. The exploit is purely client-side. Since there is very little incentive to mess with your scrobble data and it requires very specific targeting (an attacker would have to send a user a link to their own server), the severity rating might be misleading. Patches The Vulnerability is patched in 3.2.2

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-4h72-34j6-j8x7 Advisory: Maloja error page XSS vulnerability IDs: GHSA-4h72-34j6-j8x7 Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/ghsa-4h72-34j6-j8x7 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:12 UTC) Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected. Severity: Medium (CVSS 5.4) Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV. Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: malojaserver 3.2.2. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed. ## Affected components - PyPI malojaserver: affected < 3.2.2; fixed in 3.2.2 ## Suggested inspection (read-only) - `python -m pip show malojaserver`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active. ## Supported action Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version. ## Required regression checks - Run the test suite and a production build. - Exercise the features that depend on malojaserver. - 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-4h72-34j6-j8x7 (OSV record GHSA-4h72-34j6-j8x7 lists affected ranges: PyPI malojaserver >=0 <3.2.2 (fixed)) - Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-4h72-34j6-j8x7 (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-4h72-34j6-j8x7 lists affected ranges: PyPI malojaserver >=0 <3.2.2) Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
