Script execution via reflected sorting parameters
Published Nov 13, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Reflected XSS in Stefano Ottolenghi Post Pay Counter 2.784 and earlier allows remote attackers to run script via crafted requests. The plugin reflects unsanitized order and orderby parameters into its statistics-page output, allowing attacker-controlled markup to execute in a visitor's browser. Exploitation requires a victim to follow a crafted link or otherwise submit the request, and the script runs in the victim's WordPress session context.
