Mesh Connect JS SDK Vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting via createLink.openLink

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Mesh Connect JS SDK contains JS libraries for integrating with Mesh Connect. Prior to version 3.3.2, the lack of sanitization of URLs protocols in the createLink.openLink function enables the execution of arbitrary JavaScript code within the context of the parent page. This is technically indistinguishable from a real page at the rendering level and allows access to the parent page DOM, storage, session, and cookies. If the attacker can specify customIframeId, they can hijack the source of existing iframes. This issue has been patched in version 3.3.2.

### Summary The lack of sanitization of URLs protocols in the `createLink.openLink` function enables the execution of arbitrary JavaScript code within the context of the parent page. ### Details https://github.com/FrontFin/mesh-web-sdk/blob/cf013b85ab95d64c63cbe46d6cb14695474924e7/packages/link/src/Link.ts#L441 The `createLink.openLink` function takes base64 encoded links, decodes them, and then sets the resulting string as the `src` attribute of an `iframe`. It’s important to note that the protocol part is not validated, so a payload, which is a valid URL, such as `javascript:alert(document.domain)//`, can be provided to the function. ### PoC 1. Extract [poc-mesh-web-sdk.zip](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22223079/poc-mesh-web-sdk.zip) 2. Run `yarn install` and then `yarn start` 3. Paste this payload inside the input box: `amF2YXNjcmlwdDphbGVydCh3aW5kb3cucGFyZW50LmRvY3VtZW50LmJvZHkuZ2V0RWxlbWVudHNCeVRhZ05hbWUoImgyIikuaXRlbSgwKVsiaW5uZXJIVE1MIl0pLy8=` 4. Click on the _OpenLink_ button 5. Notice the alert box and ability to access the `h2` title from the parent page It can also be verified via `https://paylink.meshconnect.com/?linkToken=amF2YXNjcmlwdDphbGVydCgpLy8=`. ### Impact This is technically indistinguishable from a real page at the rendering level and allows access to the parent page DOM, storage, session, and cookies. If the attacker can specify `customIframeId`, they can hijack the source of existing iframes. If access to the private key is possible or if transactions are tampered with or initialized, in a wallet context, it can result in a critical impact due to loss of funds scenarios. ### Reporters - [Amine `zwxxb` Elsassi](https://github.com/zwxxb) of [Aptos Labs](https://aptoslabs.com/)
