Short explanation

CVE-2026-102800 involves an unauthenticated Stored XSS vulnerability in the DJ-HelpfulArticles extension. The extension stores a client-supplied ip field via AJAX handlers and prints it without output escaping in the administrator backend.

Why does it matter?

This vulnerability allows attackers to store malicious payloads without authentication and execute them within the administrator interface. The high CVSS score highlights severe risks to system integrity and confidentiality.

What should be done?

  • Follow vendor advisories.
  • Apply updates when available.
  • Review input validation and output escaping mechanisms.
Chain of evidence and sources2 verified claims

Show the technical text from the sources

Joomla Extension - dj-extensions.com - Unauthenticated Stored XSS in DJ-HelpfulArticles < 1.3.0 - The “was this article helpful” voting widget posts a client-supplied ip field to its AJAX handlers (getDeny, getConfirm, getDenyReason in mod_djhelpful_articles/helper.php), reachable without authentication through com_ajax. The value was stored exactly as submitted instead of being taken from the connection by the server. It was then printed without output escaping in the administrator backend’s “Helpful articles” overview (views/items/tmpl/default.php). $db->quote() was applied on insert, which protects the SQL statement but does nothing for HTML output. There was no CSRF token, no rate limit, and the vote de-duplication keyed on the same attacker-controlled field.
