Stored XSS via unsanitized Custom CSS
Published Sep 20, 2021 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Stored XSS in Alojapro Booking Engine 1.1.15 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute script through Custom CSS. The WordPress plugin stores Custom CSS without properly sanitizing it, then exposes the injected markup in pages viewed by other users. High-privilege access to the setting is required, and the script runs in a victim's browser in the affected site's context even when unfiltered_html is disabled.
