Administrator-level stored XSS via unescaped project slugs
Published Apr 25, 2022 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Stored XSS in Kreatura LayerSlider before 7.1.2 allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to execute scripts. The project editor stores a crafted project slug or imported JSON slug and renders it in multiple editor views without sanitization or output escaping. Administrator-level project access is required, and execution occurs when an affected editor view later renders the stored slug, exposing that viewer's browser session.
