Summary
Penpot is an open-source design and prototyping platform. In versions up to and including 2.14.3, Penpot is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting through file comments, whose content is stored as raw text and rendered into the page with innerHTML without any sanitization. Because the backend applies only a length check and the frontend writes comment content directly through innerHTML, any team member who can comment on a shared file can embed HTML such as an image error handler or script that executes in the browser of every other collaborator. The attack is passive: any user who opens the comments panel on the affected file triggers script execution on the Penpot origin, allowing theft of session cookies, actions performed as the victim, and access to their files and projects. This issue is fixed in version 2.15.3.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could steal user sessions and perform actions on their behalf, potentially leading to data confidentiality breaches.
Recommendation
Update Penpot to version 2.15.3 or later.

A vulnerability in Penpot prior to 2.14.5 allowed account takeover by exploiting invitation tokens, embedding a profile ID, and issuing a session based on email match without password verification.
- CVE-2026-47666High
Penpot is an open-source design and prototyping platform. In versions up to and including 2.14.3, Penpot is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting through custom font family names, which are interpolated into a @font-face CSS rule and injected into the page as HTML without sanitization. Because the backend accepts an arbitrary font-family string and the frontend writes the resulting style through innerHTML, a name containing markup such as a closing style tag followed by a script can break out of the style element and execute JavaScript on the Penpot origin. The attack is passive: any team member who opens a file referencing the malicious font triggers script execution simply by rendering the page, allowing theft of session cookies, actions performed as the victim, and access to their files and projects. This issue is fixed in version 2.15.3.
- CVE-2026-17613High
Penpot's ::import-binfile RPC command lacks authorization on the optional file-id parameter, allowing any authenticated user to overwrite any files on the target server and subscribe to WebSocket events, enabling full data exfiltration and data poisoning.
- CVE-2026-45806High
A vulnerability in Penpot prior to version 2.15.0 allowed an authenticated file editor to reach internal-only endpoints via remote image import. The issue was due to missing destination filtering in the HTTP client used for image downloading.
- CVE-2026-45805High
Penpot before version 2.15.0 has a vulnerability in the ReplServer that bound to 0.0.0.0:4403 and exposed an unauthenticated /execute endpoint. This allowed anyone on the network to execute arbitrary JavaScript code on the server.
