CVE-2026-35046Tandoor has a Stored CSS Injection via <style> Tag in Recipe Instructions (API-Level)
Medium 5.4
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in recipes from TandoorRecipes. Proof-of-concept exploit code is public. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 7% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
Tandoor Recipes is an application for managing recipes, planning meals, and building shopping lists. Prior to 2.6.4, Tandoor Recipes allows authenticated users to inject arbitrary <style> tags into recipe step instructions. The bleach.clean() sanitizer explicitly whitelists the <style> tag, causing the backend to persist and serve unsanitized CSS payloads via the API. Any client consuming instructions_markdown from the API and rendering it as HTML without additional sanitization will execute attacker-controlled CSS — enabling UI redressing, phishing overlays, visual defacement, and CSS-based data exfiltration. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.6.4.
