Impact
There exists a vulnerability in Querybook's rich text editor, enabling users to input arbitrary URLs without undergoing necessary validation. This particular security flaw allows the use of javascript: protocol which can potentially trigger arbitrary client-side execution.
The most extreme exploit of this flaw could occur when an admin user unknowingly clicks an XSS URL, thereby unintentionally compromising admin role access to the attacker.
Patches
A patch to rectify this issue has been introduced in Querybook version 3.31.1. The fix is backward compatible and automatically fixes existing DataDocs.
Workarounds
At present, there exist no workarounds for this issue, except for manually checking each URL prior to clicking on them.
