CVE-2026-57958
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 · uneditedMixpost through 2.6.0 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in authenticated users' browsers by crafting malicious OAuth callback URLs with unsanitized error query parameters. Attackers can exploit the OAuth callback controller's failure to sanitize error parameters before rendering them through Laravel flash messages via the Vue v-html directive to hijack authenticated user sessions or perform unauthorized actions.
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 · high confidenceMixpost through 2.6.0 has a reflected XSS vulnerability in the OAuth callback controller. Unauthenticated attackers craft malicious URLs with unsanitized error query parameters that get rendered through Laravel flash messages via Vue's v-html directive, allowing arbitrary JavaScript execution in authenticated users' browsers for session hijacking.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Determine Mixpost installed versionCheck the application's version file, composer.json, or admin interface version display. Compare against the affected range: any version through 2.6.0.Affected if Installed version is 2.6.0 or earlier
-
Verify OAuth authentication is enabledCheck if any OAuth providers (social login) are configured in the application settings or configuration files.Affected if OAuth providers are configured and active
-
Inspect OAuth callback controller for flash message usageLocate the OAuth callback controller handling error responses. Check if error query parameters from the OAuth provider are stored directly into Laravel flash messages without sanitization.Affected if Error parameters from OAuth callbacks are stored in flash messages without input sanitization
-
Check Vue template for v-html usage with OAuth errorsInspect the view templates that render OAuth error messages. Look for v-html directive binding to flash message data containing OAuth error parameters.Affected if v-html is used to display OAuth error messages from flash data
A user is affected if running Mixpost version 2.6.0 or earlier with OAuth providers enabled, where the OAuth callback controller stores unsanitized error parameters in flash messages rendered via v-html.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataSanitize all error query parameters in the OAuth callback controller before storing them in flash messages, or replace v-html with v-text/v-pre for displaying OAuth error messages to prevent HTML injection.
