What is CVE-2026-21872?

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the NiceGUI framework, affecting versions between 2.22.0 and 3.4.1. This issue arises from an unsafe click event handler linked to ui.sub_pages, which permits an attacker to render links controlled by them. When users click these links, malicious scripts can execute within the context of their browser sessions, posing a risk of unauthorized data exposure or session hijacking. Users are urged to upgrade to version 3.5.0 or later to mitigate this risk.
