FKIE_CVE-2026-58228

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-07-13 19:17 - Updated: 2026-07-13 20:37
Summary
Cross-site scripting vulnerability in phoenixframework phoenix_live_view allows an attacker to bypass URL scheme validation and execute JavaScript in a victim's browser session. The Phoenix.LiveView.Utils.valid_destination!/2 and Phoenix.LiveView.Utils.valid_live_navigation_destination!/2 functions in lib/phoenix_live_view/utils.ex rely on an internal uri_scheme/1 helper that only detects a scheme when the input's first byte is an ASCII letter. Inputs beginning with an ASCII control character or space fall through to a nil-returning clause, causing the URL to be treated as a safe relative path. Standard browsers implement the WHATWG URL parser, which strips leading C0 control and space characters before parsing. As a result, an input such as " javascript:alert(1)" is passed unchanged into <.link href={...}> and, when clicked, is parsed by the browser as a javascript: URL that executes attacker-controlled script in the victim's session. Applications that render user-supplied URLs (for example profile links, redirect targets, or external references) via <.link href={...}> are affected. This issue affects phoenix_live_view: from 1.2.2 before 1.2.7.
