CVE-2026-53608

Summary

ApostropheCMS is an open-source Node.js content management system. Versions up to and including 1.4.2 of the @apostrophecms/seo package injects the Google Analytics Tracking ID (seoGoogleTrackingId) and Google Tag Manager ID (seoGoogleTagManager) directly into <script> tag bodies using JavaScript template literals without any sanitization or validation. Any user with editor-level access (the default role for content managers) can set these fields to a malicious value, resulting in stored XSS that executes on every page for every visitor of the site. As of time of publication, no known patched versions are available.
