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. Check installed Hoppscotch version
    Open Hoppscotch and navigate to Help > About, or check the application footer for the version number. If using a self-hosted instance, check the package.json or Docker image tag.
    Affected if The displayed version is any version prior to 2026.3.0 (e.g., 2026.2.0, 2025.x.x, etc.)
  2. Verify self-hosted instance version
    For self-hosted deployments, examine the package.json file in the application root directory, or query the API endpoint that returns version information if available.
    Affected if The version field in package.json or the API response shows a version lower than 2026.3.0
  3. Confirm deployment date
    Check when the Hoppscotch instance was last deployed or updated. Review deployment records, CI/CD logs, or container image timestamps.
    Affected if The deployment occurred before the 2026.3.0 release date and has not been updated since.

If the installed Hoppscotch version is any release prior to 2026.3.0, the environment is affected by this stored XSS vulnerability.
