CVE-2026-91130: Home Assistant: XSS in Statistics Graph Card

Published Sep 22, 2026

Summary An authenticated party can add a malicious name to any statistics-capable entity, allowing for Cross-Site Scripting attacks against anyone who views a Statistics Graph card containing that entity, when they hover over any data point on the chart.

Payload <img width="1529" height="441" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6926ce53-75fb-455a-bd4e-0c5281e8bed8" />

An alternative, and more impactful scenario, is that the entity gets a malicious name from the provider of the integration (e.g. Tibber, Shelly, or any HACS integration), and is exploited that way through the default name — without requiring any direct access to the Home Assistant instance. This is the same supply-chain vector as CVE-2025-62172.

Details

The Statistics Graph card renders entity names in ECharts tooltips as raw HTML. The offending line is in src/components/chart/statistics-chart.ts:

https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/c13a80ce5e7ae39f0262444e2b6295a074a96732/src/components/chart/statistics-chart.ts#L236

Where param.seriesName is interpolated verbatim into the returned HTML string:

return ${time}${param.marker} ${param.seriesName}: ${value};

No call to filterXSS() is made — unlike the Energy dashboard chart, which was patched as part of CVE-2025-62172:

// FIXED in energy-chart-options.ts:268 return ${param.marker} ${filterXSS(param.seriesName!)}: ...;

The statistics-chart component was not updated when the Energy chart was patched, leaving the same class of vulnerability in place.

The existing entity and payload used for CVE-2025-62172 is also a valid exploit for this vulnerability: <img width="962" height="500" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/35c84dcd-64d4-47b6-8df2-6c8b63cac880" />

The name value flows through the following chain:

1. name is set from getStatisticLabel(this.hass, statisticid, meta): https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/c13a80ce5e7ae39f0262444e2b6295a074a96732/src/components/chart/statistics-chart.ts#L411

2. getStatisticLabel is defined here and calls computeStateName(entity): https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/c13a80ce5e7ae39f0262444e2b6295a074a96732/src/data/recorder.ts#L329-L339

3. computeStateName is defined here — no HTML encoding is applied: https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/blob/c13a80ce5e7ae39f0262444e2b6295a074a96732/src/common/entity/computestatename.ts

The only transformation applied to the name is replacing underscores with spaces (computeObjectId(entityId).replace(//g, " ")), which does not prevent HTML injection.

NB: Do note that only the fields Mean, State, Sum and Change are vulnerable. The top 3 (Min, Max, Mean) or the bottom 3 (State, Sum, Change) are selected by default though, making it vulnerable by default: <img width="105" height="216" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7a784c90-cca5-46da-bcb9-6942ad81da0c" />

Another requirement is that the Chart Type is of type Line, not Bar, which is also the default: <img width="133" height="91" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4f131495-9000-4a80-808b-bf4be9f7a2f6" />

PoC

1. In Settings → Devices & Services → Helpers, click + Create Helper. (For testing)

2. Choose Template → Template sensor. Fill in the form: - Name: test <img src=x onerror=alert(document.domain) /> - State template: {{0.00000001astimestamp(states('sensor.datetimeiso'))}} - Unit of measurement: kWh - State class: Measurement - Click Submit.

3. Open a dashboard and add a Statistics Graph card targeting the new sensor:

<img width="694" height="720" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/83996d12-d5ba-467a-9ca1-cbc46246ddff" />

NB: Set time-window to 5 minutes for ease of testing so you see data quickly

4. Hover over any data point on the chart.

5. The onerror handler fires — alert(document.domain) executes in the browser or HTML-injection appears depending on the payload

Exact helper as described here <img width="802" height="441" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/09284c10-bc39-410a-aff0-307e0bfd0502" />

Impact

The vulnerability can be exploited remotely via the supply-chain vector: any integration that automatically names entities (e.g. energy providers like Tibber) could deliver the payload without requiring the attacker to have any account on the target Home Assistant instance. This mirrors the exact attack path described in CVE-2025-62172. The most likely exploit is also through energy providers due to them providing multiple entities compatible with statistic graphs.

Compared to CVE-2025-62172, this has the requirement that you add a Statistics Graph to your dashboard (or somehow view the entity in a Statistics Graph through other means, if such a method exists). Otherwise the attack flow is identical. Suggested CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H

The root cause — missing filterXSS() on param.seriesName — is identical to the already-fixed Energy dashboard. The Statistics Graph card, which uses a shared statistics-chart component, was not included in the previous fix scope.

Other sources

Home Assistant is open source home automation software focused on local control and privacy. Prior to 2026.7.0, the Statistics Graph card in src/components/chart/statistics-chart.ts passed entity names through getStatisticLabel and computeStateName and interpolated param.seriesName into ECharts tooltip HTML without escaping. An authenticated user or an integration that supplies a malicious default entity name could cause script-related HTML to execute when a viewer hovered over a data point. Mean, State, Sum, and Change fields in the default Line chart configuration were affected, while Bar charts were not. This issue is fixed in version 2026.7.0.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can trigger the issue?

An authenticated user can trigger it, and an integration that supplies a malicious default entity name can also introduce the malicious content. Execution occurs when another viewer hovers over an affected chart data point.

2

Which chart configurations are affected?

The default Line chart configuration is affected for the Mean, State, Sum, and Change fields. Bar charts are not affected.

3

What should be done if patching is not immediately possible?

Avoid displaying Statistics Graph cards using the affected default Line chart fields for entity names that may be controlled by authenticated users or integrations. Restrict access to users and integrations that can supply or modify entity names until an upgrade is possible.

4

How can I determine whether my deployment is affected?

Deployments running a version earlier than 2026.7.0 are affected if they use the Statistics Graph card with the affected default Line chart fields. Review entity names supplied by users or integrations for HTML-like or script-related content.
