jsPDF's PDF Injection in AcroForm module allows Arbitrary JavaScript Execution (RadioButton.createOption and "AS" property)

CISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.

No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.

jsPDF is a library to generate PDFs in JavaScript. Prior to 4.2.0, user control of properties and methods of the Acroform module allows users to inject arbitrary PDF objects, such as JavaScript actions. If given the possibility to pass unsanitized input to one of the following property, a user can inject arbitrary PDF objects, such as JavaScript actions, which are executed when the victim hovers over the radio option. The vulnerability has been fixed in [email protected]. As a workaround, sanitize user input before passing it to the vulnerable API members.

### Impact User control of properties and methods of the Acroform module allows users to inject arbitrary PDF objects, such as JavaScript actions. If given the possibility to pass unsanitized input to the following property, a user can inject arbitrary PDF objects, such as JavaScript actions, which are executed when the victim hovers over the radio option. * `AcroformChildClass.appearanceState` Example attack vector: ```js import { jsPDF } from "jspdf" const doc = new jsPDF(); const group = new doc.AcroFormRadioButton(); group.x = 10; group.y = 10; group.width = 20; group.height = 10; doc.addField(group); const child = group.createOption("opt1"); child.x = 10; child.y = 10; child.width = 20; child.height = 10; child.appearanceState = "Off /AA << /E << /S /JavaScript /JS (app.alert('XSS')) >> >>"; doc.save("test.pdf"); ``` ### Patches The vulnerability has been fixed in [email protected]. ### Workarounds Sanitize user input before passing it to the vulnerable API members.
