CVE-2026-7299

Status: AnalyzedMedium (5.4)—

Appsmith’s SQL query editor’s autocomplete functionality fails to sanitize database object names before rendering them in innerHTML, allowing an authenticated Developer to inject persistent XSS by a malicious table or column names triggering arbitrary code execution in the sessions of other workspace members when they interact with the same datasource.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
