Administrator stored XSS via unescaped language settings

Published Jul 10, 2023 · Updated Nov 8, 2024

Stored XSS in QuantumCloud WPBot before 4.6.1 allows remote authenticated users with administrator access to execute scripts via language settings. The Language Center's General, FAQ, and ChatBot Keywords tabs save crafted attribute text in multi-value fields and render it without adequate output escaping. Administrator privileges are required, and exposure is limited to multisite installations or sites that disable unfiltered_html; focusing the saved field runs the injected script.
