CVE-2026-62378
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 · uneditedRustFS Console is a web management console for the RustFS distributed file system. From 0.1.7 until 0.1.10, the RustFS Console components/object/preview-modal.tsx and components/object/pdf-viewer.tsx extension-based PDF preview path can render HTML content uploaded as .pdf, allowing stored cross-site scripting in the management console and exposure of administrator AccessKeyId, SecretAccessKey, and SessionToken values. This is caused by a regression of CVE-2026-27822. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.1.10.
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 confidenceThe RustFS Console PDF preview feature in versions 0.1.7-0.1.10 uses file extension-based content type detection in preview-modal.tsx and pdf-viewer.tsx. Attackers can upload HTML files renamed to .pdf, which the preview function then renders as executable HTML, enabling stored XSS that can exfiltrate administrator AWS credentials (AccessKeyId, SecretAccessKey, SessionToken). This is a regression of CVE-2026-27822.

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.
-
Identify RustFS Console versionCheck the installed package version of RustFS Console (package.json, Cargo.toml, or running 'rustfs --version' or similar)Affected if Version is 0.1.7, 0.1.8, 0.1.9, or 0.1.10 (the affected range)
-
Confirm PDF preview feature is enabledDetermine if the PDF preview feature in the console is accessible to users (check console configuration or feature flags)Affected if The PDF preview modal functionality is available and users can trigger file previews
-
Inspect preview-modal.tsx for extension-based detectionLocate and examine the file preview-modal.tsx in the source code; look for logic that determines content type based solely on file extension (e.g., checking .pdf extension without MIME type validation)Affected if Code uses only file extension to determine content type for PDF previews
-
Inspect pdf-viewer.tsx for extension-based detectionLocate and examine the file pdf-viewer.tsx in the source code; look for logic that renders content based on file extension without validating actual MIME typeAffected if Code uses only file extension to determine how to render uploaded files
-
Check for absence of server-side MIME validationReview the file upload handler or API endpoint that processes uploaded files; verify whether server-side content-type or MIME-type validation is performed before renderingAffected if Server does not validate actual file content type/MIME type and relies only on client-side extension checking
Environment is affected if RustFS Console version is 0.1.7 through 0.1.10 and the PDF preview feature is enabled, with source code showing extension-only content type detection in preview-modal.tsx or pdf-viewer.tsx lacking server-side MIME validation.

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.
dbcve · scopedUpgrade to version 0.1.10 or later. Additionally, implement server-side content-type validation and MIME-type checking rather than relying on file extensions to prevent HTML execution in PDF previews.
0.1.10
- Upgrade RustFS Console to version 0.1.10 or later to resolve the stored XSS vulnerability in the PDF preview components
