GHSA-mgr9-6c2j-jxrq: Pterodactyl has a Reflected XSS vulnerability in “Create New Database Host”

December 30, 2025

When an administrative user creates a new database host they are prompted to provide a Host value which is expected to be a domain or IP address. When an invalid value is encountered and passed back to gethostaddr and/or directly to the MySQL connection tooling, an error is returned. This error is then passed back along to the front-end, but was not properly sanitized when rendered.

Therefore it is possible for an admin to knowingly paste a malicious payload such as <script>prompt(document.domain)</script> into the Host field and XSS themselves.
