CVE-2026-10153: westboy CicadasCMS AbstractCacheManager.java search cross site scripting

A flaw has been found in westboy CicadasCMS up to 2431154dac8d0735e04f1fd2a3c3556668fc8dab. Impacted is the function Search of the file org/springframework/cache/support/AbstractCacheManager.java. This manipulation of the argument s causes cross site scripting. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been published and may be used. This product follows a rolling release approach for continuous delivery, so version details for affected or updated releases are not provided. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

CVE-2026-10153 is a cross-site scripting flaw in westboy CicadasCMS search handling. A remote attacker may be able to make a user interact with malicious search content, causing unauthorized script execution in that user’s browser. Public exploit information exists, but the sources do not show known active exploitation.

Executive priority

Treat this as a moderate web-application exposure. It is not reported as actively exploited, but public exploit material and unclear vendor remediation justify prompt inventory, exposure reduction, and monitoring.

Technical view

The report maps the issue to CicadasCMS through commit 2431154dac8d0735e04f1fd2a3c3556668fc8dab. It identifies the Search function in AbstractCacheManager.java and argument s as the affected path. CVSS v4.0 is 5.3 with network attack vector, no privileges required, and user interaction required.

Likely exposure

Exposure is likely limited to organizations running westboy CicadasCMS, especially internet-facing deployments that include the affected search behavior. Release boundaries are unclear because the project uses rolling releases and no fixed or updated version is named.

Exploitation context

The source bundle says remote exploitation is possible and exploit material has been published. KEV status is false, and the provided sources do not establish active exploitation in the wild. Vendor response or confirmed remediation is not shown.

Researcher notes

Evidence is centered on VulDB and the referenced Gitee issue. The CVE lists CWE-79 and CWE-94, but the described impact is cross-site scripting. Affected release boundaries and patch status are incomplete.

Mitigation direction

  • Check the CicadasCMS project and issue tracker for vendor guidance or a fixed commit.
  • Restrict public access to affected CicadasCMS search functionality where feasible.
  • Use compensating controls to reduce reflected script execution risk at the edge.
  • Avoid relying on a version upgrade claim until upstream publishes clear remediation.
  • Track the issue for vendor response because sources say no response yet.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory CicadasCMS deployments and record deployed commit or release provenance.
  • Confirm whether deployments include the affected search handling path.
  • Review application logs for unusual search parameter activity without using exploit payloads.
  • Check whether the referenced Gitee issue has new maintainer guidance.
  • Validate any remediation in staging using safe, non-weaponized XSS checks.
