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
DbGate is cross-platform database manager. From version 7.0.0 to before version 7.1.5, a stored XSS vulnerability exists in DbGate because attacker-controlled SVG icon strings are rendered as raw HTML without sanitization. In the web UI this allows script execution in another user's browser; in the Electron desktop app this can escalate to local code execution because Electron is configured with nodeIntegration: true and contextIsolation: false. This issue has been patched in version 7.1.5.

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.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-79

Untrusted input is placed into a web page without being neutralised, so an attacker's markup or script executes in another user's browser. That can hijack sessions, capture keystrokes, or silently perform actions as the victim. Fixing it properly means context-aware output encoding everywhere data meets HTML, backed by a content-security policy as a second line of defence.

Recommended fix High confidence

7.1.5

  1. Check current DbGate version (Help > About in the application)
  2. If version is between 7.0.0 and 7.1.5 (exclusive), plan for upgrade
  3. Download DbGate version 7.1.5 or later from the official GitHub releases page: https://github.com/dbgate/dbgate/releases
  4. Back up any existing databases_connections.json or configuration files as needed
  5. Install the upgraded version, overwriting the existing installation
  6. Restart the application and verify the version in Help > About
