CVE-2026-71236CVE-2026-71236

Description

Grocy's API request-body parser (controllers/Api/BaseApiController.php, GetParsedAndFilteredRequestBody) purifies incoming field values with HTMLPurifier, then manually reverses HTML-entity encoding of the resulting output by replacing &amp;lt;, &amp;gt;, and &amp;amp; back to <, >, and & immediately after purification. This double-decode reconstructs live HTML/script tags from the entity-encoded form that HTMLPurifier produced to neutralize them, re-introducing stored XSS across API-writable fields (products, recipes, stock, users, chores, and others) that are rendered elsewhere without re-sanitization.
