CVE-2026-27570
Discourse Vulnerable to Stored XSS via Shared AI Conversation Onebox
Description
Discourse is an open-source discussion platform. Prior to versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2, the onebox method in the SharedAiConversation model renders the conversation title directly into HTML without proper sanitization. Versions 2026.3.0-latest.1, 2026.2.1, and 2026.1.2 contain a patch. As a workaround, tighten access by changing the `ai_bot_public_sharing_allowed_groups` site setting.
