Contributor-level stored XSS via unescaped plugin parameters
Published Jun 15, 2022 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in Nicdark Travel Management 2.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts through plugin parameters. The plugin stores multiple contributor-controlled parameters without sanitization and renders their values without output escaping; public sources do not name the parameters or code locations. A Contributor or higher role is required to submit a payload, and the script runs only when another user views the stored content in WordPress.
