CVE-2026-55437
Last modified
CVE-2026-55437 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.4/10 on the CVSS scale. Coder allows organizations to provision remote development environments via Terraform. Prior to versions 2.29.17, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2, the `AgentLogLine` dashboard component instantiated `ansi-to-html` without `escapeXML: true` and inserted the result via `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` so HTML embedded in workspace agent log lines was rendered as live markup. EPSS estimates a 0.31% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
Description
Coder allows organizations to provision remote development environments via Terraform. Prior to versions 2.29.17, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2, the `AgentLogLine` dashboard component instantiated `ansi-to-html` without `escapeXML: true` and inserted the result via `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` so HTML embedded in workspace agent log lines was rendered as live markup. Server-side sanitization did not neutralize HTML metacharacters. Exploitation requires a victim to view attacker-controlled agent logs in the dashboard. The fix in versions 2.29.17, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2 enables `escapeXML: true` so HTML metacharacters are escaped before DOM insertion. No known workarounds are available.
