How to Fix CVE-2026-61807

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Snipe-IT dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

snipe/snipe-it fixed: 8.6.2 
Upgrade snipe/snipe-it to 8.6.2
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for snipe/snipe-it

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-61807, inspect your project dependencies for Snipe-IT:

inspect dependencies for snipe/snipe-it

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Snipe-IT in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 8.6.2), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), where the product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. In Snipe-IT, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Impact The table component derives data-selected-count-id from the component $name value. On manufacturer and supplier detail pages, stored manufacturer or supplier names are passed into affected table components as that name value. The client-side JavaScript later reads the browser-decoded data-selected-count-id, uses it as a selector, and concatenates countId.substring(1) directly into an HTML string passed to jQuery .after(). Affected commit: `b224cc636c6780386e3f73f03d1171f52ab4c37a` Example payload for a manufacturer or supplier name: `x[foo="><svg/onload=alert(1)>"]>` The issue appears to involve the following flow: Stored supplier/manufacturer name -> table component data-selected-count-id -> browser decodes the attribute -> JavaScript reads countId -> countId is used as a selector -> countId.substring(1) is concatenated into HTML -> jQuery .after() inserts attacker-controlled markup -> JavaScript executes in the victim's browser Potential impact includes arbitrary JavaScript execution in the browser of an authenticated Snipe-IT user who views the affected supplier or manufacturer detail page. If the victim has elevated privileges, this may allow access to data or actions available to that user's session. ### Patches Patched in https://github.com/grokability/snipe-it/commit/d12ad3d53869443b96b663ba3ce2673ef343da71
