CVE-2026-106139 — Cross-Site Scripting via Chart Tooltip in Kendo UI for Vue

In Progress® Kendo UI for Vue (@progress/kendo-vue-charts) starting with version 2.5.0 and prior to 16.2.0, the default Chart tooltip renders the formatted point value as raw HTML without encoding, in both the single-point and the shared tooltip. An attacker with low privileges who can influence a string value bound to the chart can supply HTML containing event handlers that execute JavaScript in a user's browser when the user hovers over the affected data point. Successful exploitation can compromise the confidentiality and integrity of data accessible to the affected application.

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.
How the score was calculated
  • EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+1
  • Technical severity (medium)+3

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

Remediation

Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.

No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Progress Software Kendo UI for Vue).
  2. No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
  3. Exploitation requires user interaction: tighten email/web filtering and warn affected users.
  4. Search available logs for exploit probes, errors and authentication anomalies.
