What is CVE-2026-39970?

TypeBot, the chatbot builder tool, contains a stored XSS vulnerability in its profile picture upload form, affecting versions 3.15.2 and earlier. The application inadequately sanitizes SVG/XML uploads, allowing attackers to upload malicious SVG files embedded with JavaScript. When a victim accesses these files through the app's domain, the embedded script executes, potentially granting attackers unauthorized access to user accounts, session tokens, and sensitive data. This vulnerability highlights the importance of proper input validation and output escaping in web applications. The issue has been resolved in version 3.16.0, which addresses the flaws in the upload functionality.
