Script execution via unescaped breadcrumb output
Published Jul 18, 2023 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Reflected XSS in affected DeoThemes WordPress themes allows remote attackers to run script in a visitor's browser via a crafted link. The breadcrumb rendering path incorporates attacker-controlled request content into page output without sufficient input sanitization or output escaping. Amela 1.0.13 and earlier, Arendelle 1.1.12 and earlier, Everse 1.8.10 and earlier, MedikAid 1.1.2 and earlier, and Nokke 1.2.3 and earlier are affected; exploitation requires a visitor to follow the link, and the resulting script executes within that site's browser context.
