Script execution via unescaped printersettings reflection
Published Nov 13, 2023 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Reflected XSS in Star CloudPRNT for WooCommerce 2.0.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to run scripts through a crafted link. The request handler reflects the printersettings parameter into a generated page without input sanitization or context-appropriate output escaping. Exploitation requires no authentication but requires a user to follow the attacker-supplied link, allowing script execution in that user's browser context.
