Stored script execution via unescaped forum subjects
Published Nov 29, 2022 · Updated Apr 25, 2025
Stored cross-site scripting in KLiK SocialMediaWebsite 1.0.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript via forum subjects. The forum workflow stores the Subject input and renders it for later readers without neutralizing executable markup. A low-privileged account can plant the payload, but another user must view the affected forum content for confidentiality or integrity impact.
