What is CVE-2025-54384?

The CKAN data management system was found to have a security flaw in its helpers.markdown_extract() function, which failed to adequately sanitize user input before displaying it on various pages including datasets and resources. This oversight could allow attackers to inject malicious scripts, potentially compromising user sessions and leading to unauthorized access. The issue has since been addressed in CKAN versions 2.10.9 and 2.11.4, which implement necessary sanitization to protect against such attacks.
