# CVE-2026-129142: paicoding commit 766c48b through 903adce Stored XSS via Payment Notifications

Status: published. Published: 2026-11-13. Updated: 2026-11-13.

paicoding commit 766c48b through commit 903adce contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in payment notifications, where NotifyMsgListener inserts the payer's display name unescaped and notify-system-item.html renders it via th:utext. Authenticated attackers can set a malicious display name and start a pending payment on a paid article, executing script in the author's browser when the author views notifications.
