Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Material for MkDocs. A DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the search suggestion feature. A remote attacker could exploit this by crafting a malicious URL with a specially designed query parameter. After user interaction, this could lead to the execution of arbitrary JavaScript code in the context of the documentation site, potentially resulting in information disclosure or other client-side attacks.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-12 16:21:18 UTC
Material for MkDocs is a powerful documentation framework built on top of MkDocs. From 7.2.0 until 9.7.7, the mountSearchSuggest function in src/templates/assets/javascripts/components/search/suggest/index.ts contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting vulnerability in the optional search.suggest feature that allows a crafted q URL parameter to execute JavaScript in a documentation site's origin after user interaction. This issue is fixed in version 9.7.7.
