8.1High

CVE-2026-32258

Winter is a free, open-source content management system (CMS) based on the Laravel PHP framework. From 1.2.10 through 1.2.12, authenticated backend users with the backend.manage_editor permission can store custom Markup Styles that are compiled by the LESS parser and rendered without sanitization on every backend page, allowing stored cross-site scripting. This issue is fixed in version 1.2.13.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, with an administrator login, but only after tricking someone into an action such as opening a file or a link.
  • FIRST's prediction model gives it a 0.2% chance of attack attempts being seen in the next 30 days, ranking above 12% of all known flaws.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
