Published Nov 28, 2022 · Updated Apr 25, 2025
Stored XSS in Ali Imran Salat Times before 3.2.2 allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts through the widget title. The plugin stores the Widget Title parameter without sufficient input sanitization or output escaping, causing injected script to execute when a visitor loads the affected page. Administrator privileges and a multisite installation or disabled unfiltered_html capability are required, and execution depends on another user viewing the page.
