Stored XSS via unescaped favorite URL
Published Nov 25, 2022 · Updated Apr 23, 2025
Stored cross-site scripting in baserCMS 4.7.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript via a crafted favorite URL. The favorite-menu template places the stored URL in a link title attribute without HTML escaping, allowing attribute breakout when the menu renders. An authenticated management user must register the payload and another user must render the favorite menu; successful execution can alter the page or expose accessible cookies.
