Reflected XSS via unescaped form ID parameter
Published Jun 13, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Reflected XSS in MailerLite Signup Forms before 1.5.4 allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator's browser. The WordPress admin edit-form route reflects the id query parameter into HTML without sanitization or output escaping. Exploitation requires an existing form ID and an administrator to open a crafted URL, allowing script to run in that browser session.
