Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Bynder v0.1.394 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via a crafted payload.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

Bynder v0.1.394 contains a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability where attackers can inject malicious scripts or HTML through a crafted payload that gets persisted in the application and executed when other users view the affected content.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of Bynder and implement output encoding/sanitization on all user-supplied input fields to prevent script execution.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Bynder version
    Access the Bynder admin interface, typically via /admin/settings or check the application's footer/version info. Alternatively, check the package.json, version file, or API endpoint that returns version information.
    Affected if The installed version is v0.1.394 or falls within an unpatched version range prior to the fix.
  2. Locate user-supplied input fields
    Review the application for fields that accept and persist user content, such as asset titles, descriptions, metadata fields, comments, or custom property values.
    Affected if The application accepts user input that gets stored and displayed back to other users without immediate sanitization.
  3. Test for output encoding on stored content
    Inspect the application code or HTTP responses when viewing stored content. Check if special characters like <, >, ", ', and script tags are encoded (e.g., < becomes &lt;) when rendered to other users.
    Affected if Output encoding is not applied; raw HTML or script tags render unescaped in the browser.
  4. Verify if input sanitization is present
    Review the application's data handling logic or check response headers/HTML source for Content Security Policy (CSP) headers or sanitization libraries (e.g., DOMPurify, sanitize-html) being used on user inputs.
    Affected if No input sanitization or CSP is configured to block script execution from stored payloads.

You are affected if you are running Bynder v0.1.394 (or an unpatched version) and user-supplied content fields lack output encoding or sanitization, allowing stored XSS to execute.
