Administrator-session script execution via reflected nonce
Published Sep 4, 2023 · Updated Mar 6, 2025
Reflected XSS in Agile Logix Agile Store Locator before 1.4.13 allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator's browser. The unauthenticated asl_ajax_handler AJAX action returns the attacker-controlled asl-nounce value in its invalid-nonce response without sanitizing or escaping it. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to open a crafted URL, enabling script execution in that administrator's WordPress session.
