CVE-2022-4125Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Stored XSS via unauthenticated popup update

Published Dec 19, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

Stored XSS in Cohhe Popup Manager 1.6.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject scripts through unauthenticated popup updates. The pm_save_data AJAX action accepts attacker-controlled popup_html and stores it without authorization, sanitization, or output escaping. A visitor must load the altered popup; the stored script then executes in that visitor's browser and can act with that session's access.
