CVE-2026-1446 — There is a Cross‑Site Scripting (XSS) issue in Esri ArcGIS Pro versions 3.6.0 and earlier

Medium CVSS 5

There is a Cross‑Site Scripting (XSS) issue in Esri ArcGIS Pro versions 3.6.0 and earlier. ArcGIS Pro is a desktop application, and exploitation is limited to local users interacting with the application; no privileged role or elevated permissions are required beyond standard local user access. A local attacker can supply malicious strings that may be rendered and executed when a specific dialog within ArcGIS Pro is opened. This issue is fixed in ArcGIS Pro version 3.6.1.

Cross-site scripting and unsafe browser output

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace reflected, stored, and DOM-derived untrusted values into HTML, attributes, URLs, styles, scripts, and client-side template sinks.
  • Identify affected origins, authenticated user roles, sensitive browser capabilities, and where content is shared across tenants.
  • Review framework escaping, rich-text sanitization, legacy templates, and client-side rendering paths.

Remediate safely

  • Use context-aware framework output encoding and safe DOM APIs; keep untrusted data out of executable contexts.
  • Sanitize intentionally supported markup with a maintained allowlist policy and validate URLs and attributes separately.
  • Update affected rendering components and add tests for every output context using inert sentinel markup.
