CVE-2026-33742
Invoice Ninja has Stored XSS via Markdown HTML Injection in Product Notes
Description

Invoice Ninja is a source-available invoice, quote, project and time-tracking app built with Laravel. Product notes fields in Invoice Ninja v5.13.0 allow raw HTML via Markdown rendering, enabling stored XSS. The Markdown parser output was not sanitized with `purify::clean()` before being included in invoice templates. This is fixed in v5.13.4 by the vendor by adding `purify::clean()` to sanitize Markdown output.
