Summary

Mealie 3.0.1 and earlier is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the recipe creation functionality. Unsanitized user input in the "note" and "text" fields of the "/api/recipes/{recipe_name}" endpoint is rendered in the frontend without proper escaping leading to persistent XSS.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can inject a malicious script that executes in other users' browsers, enabling session or data theft. The risk affects all users viewing infected recipes.

Recommendation

Update Mealie to a patched version and implement proper output encoding and input validation. Also review existing recipes for malicious content.
