Published Jun 24, 2026 · Updated Jun 24, 2026 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Jellyfin is an open source self hosted media server. Prior to 10.11.9, a potential XSS attack exists in Jellyfin which can allow a non-privileged user to execute arbitrary Javascript in the context of a logged-in Administrative user, resulting in numerous potential issues. The Client header during an AuthenticateByName can contain arbitrary HTML and Javascript, which will then be executed by the Administrative user when visiting the Access tab of the user in question from within the dashboard. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.11.9.
