CVE-2026-24737
HighCVSS 8.1Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk42th percentile - higher than 42% of all known CVEs
Summary
The jsPDF library prior to version 4.1.0 has a vulnerability that allows injection of arbitrary PDF objects, including JavaScript actions, through user control of Acroform module properties and methods. Attackers can exploit unsanitized input in methods such as AcroformChoiceField.addOption, AcroformChoiceField.setOptions, AcroFormCheckBox.appearanceState, and AcroFormRadioButton.appearanceState.
Risk Assessment
The risk is that a victim opening a crafted PDF document may execute malicious JavaScript code, leading to data theft, malware infection, or other unauthorized actions in the victim's environment.
Recommendation
Immediately update the jsPDF library to version 4.1.0 or later, which includes the fix for this vulnerability. In the meantime, avoid passing unsanitized input to the mentioned methods and properties of the Acroform module.
Other vulnerabilities in jsPDF
See all- CVE-2026-31938Critical
The jsPDF library prior to version 4.2.1 is vulnerable to HTML injection (including scripts) via user control of the `options` argument in the `output` function. An attacker can supply malicious values that, when the PDF is generated and opened in the victim's browser, execute in the victim's browser context.
- CVE-2026-31898High
jsPDF library prior to version 4.2.1 is vulnerable to injection of arbitrary PDF objects, including JavaScript actions, via the `color` parameter of the `createAnnotation` method. An attacker can exploit this to execute malicious code when the PDF is opened.
- CVE-2026-25940High
The jsPDF library prior to version 4.2.0 contains a vulnerability that allows injection of arbitrary PDF objects, including JavaScript actions, through control of Acroform module properties and methods. The attack can be triggered when the victim hovers over a radio option.
- CVE-2026-25755High
The jsPDF library prior to version 4.2.0 is vulnerable to injection of arbitrary PDF objects via user-controlled argument of the `addJS` method. An attacker can escape JavaScript string delimiters to alter document structure or execute malicious actions.
- CVE-2026-25535High
The jsPDF library prior to version 4.2.0 is vulnerable to a denial of service attack via user control of the first argument of the `addImage` method. Passing a malicious GIF file with large width/height headers causes excessive memory allocation and denial of service. The `html` method is also affected.
- CVE-2025-68428High
The jsPDF library prior to version 4.0.0 is vulnerable to local file inclusion and path traversal. An attacker can exploit the loadFile method, as well as addImage, html, and addFont, to read arbitrary files from the server's file system. The file contents are then embedded in generated PDF documents.
Original NVD description (English source)
jsPDF is a library to generate PDFs in JavaScript. Prior to 4.1.0, 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 methods or properties, a user can inject arbitrary PDF objects, such as JavaScript actions, which are executed when the victim opens the document. The vulnerable API members are AcroformChoiceField.addOption, AcroformChoiceField.setOptions, AcroFormCheckBox.appearanceState, and AcroFormRadioButton.appearanceState. The vulnerability has been fixed in [email protected].
