Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Quay. The filedrop endpoint accepts any mime type without validation, allowing an authenticated user with repository write access to upload a malicious SVG file containing JavaScript. The file is stored and served inline through the CDN, enabling stored cross-site scripting when a victim visits the archive URL.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-06-08 09:17:56 UTC
The filedrop endpoint (POST /api/v1/filedrop/) accepts any mimeType without validation, including image/svg+xml, text/html, and application/javascript. An attacker with repository write access can upload a malicious SVG file containing JavaScript, create a build referencing the file_id, and obtain an archive_url that serves the SVG through the CDN. When a victim visits the archive URL, the browser renders the SVG inline and executes the embedded JavaScript. The malicious SVG is stored in the object storage backend and served through a legitimate Quay domain. However, session hijacking is not possible as the _csrf_token session cookie is configured with HttpOnly and Secure attributes.
