CVE-2026-28445 baptisteArno CVE debrief
CVE-2026-28445 is a high-severity vulnerability in Typebot, a chatbot builder tool. Versions 3.15.2 and prior are affected. The RatingButton component in the embed package renders user-controlled customIcon.svg field directly via Solid's innerHTML directive without sanitization. This allows for arbitrary HTML/JS execution in the builder's authenticated context, enabling session hijacking and privilege escalation within the builder application. The issue has been fixed in version 3.16.0.

Who should care
Developers and administrators using Typebot versions 3.15.2 or earlier should be concerned about this vulnerability. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized actions within the builder application.
Technical summary
The RatingButton component in Typebot's embed package uses Solid's innerHTML directive to render the user-controlled customIcon.svg field without proper sanitization. Although DOMPurify is used elsewhere in the codebase, it is not applied here. The builder preview renders bots inline on the builder's origin (builder.typebot.io) under a CSP permitting 'unsafe-inline'. This allows a malicious typebot to execute arbitrary HTML/JS in the builder's authenticated context, bypassing the Web Worker sandbox that protects Script blocks during preview.
Defensive priority
High priority should be given to updating Typebot to version 3.16.0 or later. In the meantime, review and restrict the use of custom icons in RatingButton components, and consider implementing additional security measures such as Content Security Policy (CSP) restrictions.
Recommended defensive actions
- Update Typebot to version 3.16.0 or later
- Review and restrict the use of custom icons in RatingButton components
