GHSA-vmhf-c436-hxj4: JupyterLab: Stored XSS in extension manager through package metadata unsanitized URI protocol

June 19, 2026

A malicious PyPI package can place a javascript: URL in its [project.urls] metadata. JupyterLab’s Extension Manager renders this as the extension’s home-page link without validating the protocol, so a user who clicks the extension name executes attacker-controlled JavaScript in the JupyterLab origin.
