CVE-2026-7308	May 11, 2026	XSS via Repository HTML Index in Nexus Repository 3.6.0-3.92.0 An authenticated user with upload permission to a hosted repository can store content that causes arbitrary JavaScript to execute in the browser of any user who browses that repository directory via the HTML index page in Sonatype Nexus Repository versions 3.6.0 through versions before 3.92.0. This could allow the attacker to perform actions in the context of the victim's session.	Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2026-3048	May 11, 2026	Server-Side Connection Initiation in Nexus Repository Manager 3.x via LDAP Admin An authenticated administrator who configures or tests LDAP connectivity in Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager versions 3.0.0 through 3.91.1 may be able to initiate unintended server-side connections when interacting with a malicious LDAP server.	Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2026-5189	Apr 15, 2026	Hard-Coded Credentials in Nexus Repository Manager 3.0.0-3.70.5 Allow Unauth OS Cmds CWE-798: Use of Hard-coded Credentials in Sonatype Nexus Repository Manager versions 3.0.0 through 3.70.5 allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to gain unauthorized read/write access to the internal database and execute arbitrary OS commands as the Nexus process user. Exploitation requires the non-default nexus.orient.binaryListenerEnabled=true configuration to be enabled.	Nexus Repository Manager

Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2026-3438	Apr 08, 2026	Reflected XSS in Sonatype Nexus Repo 3.0.0-3.90.2 via Craft URL A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in Sonatype Nexus Repository versions 3.0.0 through 3.90.2 that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser through a specially crafted URL. Exploitation requires user interaction.	Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2026-0600	Jan 14, 2026	Nexus Repository 3 SSRF via Proxy Repo URL (v3.0.0+; fixed 3.88.0+) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Sonatype Nexus Repository 3 versions 3.0.0 and later allows authenticated administrators to configure proxy repositories with URLs that can access unintended network destinations, potentially including cloud metadata services and internal network resources.

CVE-2026-0601	Jan 14, 2026	CVE-2026-0601: Reflected XSS in Nexus Repository 3 via Unsanitized Input A reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in Nexus Repository 3 that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser through a specially crafted request requiring user interaction.	Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2025-13488	Dec 04, 2025	Sonatype Nexus Repo 3.83.0: XSS from missing security header Due to a regression introduced in version 3.83.0, a security header is no longer applied to certain user-uploaded content served from repositories. This may allow an authenticated attacker with repository upload privileges to exploit a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability with user context.	Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2025-9868	Oct 08, 2025	SSRF in Sonatype Nexus Repository 2.15.2 Remote Browser Plugin Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in the Remote Browser Plugin in Sonatype Nexus Repository 2.x up to and including 2.15.2 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to exfiltrate proxy repository credentials via crafted HTTP requests.	Nexus Repository Manager
CVE-2024-5764	Oct 23, 2024	Hard-Coded Credentials in Sonatype Nexus Repository 3.0.0-3.72.0 Use of Hard-coded Credentials vulnerability in Sonatype Nexus Repository has been discovered in the code responsible for encrypting any secrets stored in the Nexus Repository configuration database (SMTP or HTTP proxy credentials, user tokens, tokens, among others). The affected versions relied on a static hard-coded encryption passphrase. While it was possible for an administrator to define an alternate encryption passphrase, it could only be done at first boot and not updated. This issue affects Nexus Repository: from 3.0.0 through 3.72.0.	Nexus
