Description

DHIS2 is a flexible information system for data capture, management, validation, analytics and visualization. The DHIS2 OpenAPI HTML endpoint reflected values from the scope query parameter into the generated HTML document without sufficient sanitization. A crafted scope value could be rendered as active HTML or JavaScript in the OpenAPI documentation page. An attacker able to get a user to open a crafted OpenAPI HTML URL could execute JavaScript in that user's browser in the DHIS2 origin.

Affected versions: DHIS2 2.42 and 2.43 before the 2026-06-09 security patch releases, and the development branch for DHIS2 2.44 before the fix was merged. Patched in 2.42.5.1, 2.43.0.1, the 2.42 and 2.43 line branches, and the 2.44 development branch.
