Unauthenticated reflected script via unsanitized code parameter
Published Mar 21, 2022 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Reflected cross-site scripting in Amelia before 1.0.47 allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator's browser via a crafted code parameter. The admin page outputs the parameter without sanitizing or escaping it, so a malicious URL is reflected as active markup. Exploitation requires a logged-in WordPress administrator to visit the URL; the script runs in the site's origin and can read or alter data available to that session.
