Overview

CVE-2026-71542 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on October 1, 2026.

Technical description

GetSimple CMS is a content management system (CMS), and GetSimple CMS CE is the community edition of that CMS. In versions 3.3.22 and prior, GetSimpleCMS-CE is vulnerable to stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the "Theme to Components" functionality (admin/components.php) via the title parameter. The stored title is rendered inside a double-quoted HTML attribute in the administrative interface through an output path that HTML-entity-decodes the value before printing it, without re-encoding for the attribute context. This allows persistent execution of arbitrary JavaScript in the admin panel. At time of publication, there are no publicly available patches.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
