CVE-2026-42897 is an actively exploited cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in on-premises Microsoft Exchange Server, specifically affecting the Outlook Web Access (OWA) rendering path. Microsoft describes the issue as improper neutralization of input during web page generation. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a specially crafted email to a target user; when the victim opens the message in OWA and certain interaction conditions are met, attacker-controlled JavaScript executes in the browser context of the authenticated OWA session. Affected products include Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, and Exchange Server Subscription Edition at any update level. Exchange Online is not affected. Microsoft classified the issue as a spoofing vulnerability, but the available reporting consistently characterizes the root cause and exploit behavior as XSS in OWA.
