File Browser provides a file managing interface within a specified directory and it can be used to upload, delete, preview, rename and edit files. The Markdown preview function of File Browser prior to v2.33.7 is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS). Any JavaScript code that is part of a Markdown file uploaded by a user will be executed by the browser. Version 2.33.7 contains a fix for the issue.
This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 7.6, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity though user interaction is required requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts confidentiality (data exposure), limited integrity, for affected systems. Impacting 1 product from filebrowser organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2025, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For filebrowser's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
