CVE-2026-31823

Sylius is an Open Source eCommerce Framework on Symfony.

Sylius is an Open Source eCommerce Framework on Symfony. An authenticated stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in multiple places across the shop frontend and admin panel due to unsanitized entity names being rendered as raw HTML. Shop breadcrumbs (shared/breadcrumbs.html.twig): The breadcrumbs macro uses the Twig |raw filter on label values. Since taxon names, product names, and ancestor names flow directly into these labels, a malicious taxon name like <img src=x onerror=alert('XSS')> is rendered and executed as JavaScript on the storefront. Admin product taxon picker (ProductTaxonTreeController.js): The rowRenderer method interpolates ${name} directly into a template literal building HTML, allowing script injection through taxon names in the admin panel. Admin autocomplete fields (Tom Select): Dropdown items and options render entity names as raw HTML without escaping, allowing XSS through any autocomplete field displaying entity names. An authenticated administrator can inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript via entity names (e.g. taxon name) that is persistently rendered for all users. The issue is fixed in versions: 1.9.12, 1.10.16, 1.11.17, 1.12.23, 1.13.15, 1

What it means for a small business

If your business uses Sylius, install the vendor's update. If you're not sure whether you use it, ask whoever manages your computers.

How likely is an attack? The Exploit Prediction Scoring System, run by FIRST (the global association of security response teams), puts the odds of this one being exploited in the next 30 days at 0.15%, higher than 4% of CVEs. That’s low, but low isn’t zero, and the odds jump the day someone publishes an exploit. Scored October 28, 2026, updated daily.

Check your own setup

  • Website check: reads what your site runs from the outside (WordPress version, plugins it can see, old server software) and matches it against this database.
  • Server check: what your web server says about itself, and whether that version has known flaws.
