How to Fix CVE-2026-55409

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

filament/forms fixed: 3.3.53
Upgrade filament/forms to 3.3.53
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 filament/forms

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-55409, inspect your project dependencies for Filament:

inspect dependencies for filament/forms

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Filament in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 3.3.53), 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 Filament, 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

In Filament v3, a disabled `RichEditor` field rendered its raw state without sanitizing HTML. Where the data stored in this field's state isn't sanitized already when the form state was filled, an attacker could plant malicious HTML or JavaScript and achieve XSS that executes for users who view the form. Please note that Filament v4 and above does not use the same mechanism for rendering a disabled `RichEditor` so this advisory does not apply.
