## Summary In Kiwi TCMS the fields `TestCase.extra_link` and `TestPlan.extra_link` were meant to represent URLs to external resources however in versions prior to 16.1 user input was not being sanitized and values were rendered verbatim which represents an opportunity for cross-site scripting exploitation. In version 16.1 these fields are properly sanitized and existing database records which don't validate will be reset to a null value. ## Impact Deployments which use the official Docker images and/or unmodified Kiwi TCMS middleware send a `Content-Security-Policy` header which makes this vulnerability difficult to exploit in practice because this header blocks the browser from executing inline JavaScript. Customized deployments which modify the default security settings may still be vulnerable.
Monitor this advisory for an available fix and review any installs of the affected package.

AI coding agents often install or upgrade packages automatically in pip. A low vulnerability in a dependency can be pulled into a project through a normal install or update without a human reviewing the change, expanding the blast radius from a single package to every agent workspace that depends on it.
