Contributor-level stored XSS via unsanitized shortcode attributes
Published Dec 14, 2023 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in Simple Calendar – Google Calendar Plugin 3.2.7 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts via shortcodes. The shortcode handlers accept user-supplied attributes without sufficient input sanitization and render them without sufficient output escaping. Contributor-level access is enough to plant the payload, which executes in the browser of any user who opens the affected page.
