Koodo Reader: Remote code execution via malicious epub file

Published Jul 7, 2026 · Updated Jul 8, 2026 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Koodo Reader is an ebook reader. In version 2.3.0 and earlier, Koodo Reader is vulnerable to remote code execution through malicious EPUB files because the open-book IPC handler enables nodeIntegrationInSubFrames and EPUB chapter content is rendered with unsanitized innerHTML. An attacker can craft an EPUB book that, when imported and opened by the victim, instantiates a hidden iframe with Node.js API access and executes arbitrary operating system commands with the victim user's privileges. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.1.
