Administrator-context script execution via unescaped post-status parameter
Published May 15, 2025 · Updated Nov 13, 2025
Reflected XSS in Hijiriworld Advanced Schedule Posts 2.1.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute script in an administrator’s browser. The hasp-list administration page writes the post-status query parameter into its HTML response without sanitization or output escaping. Exploitation requires a high-privilege user to open a crafted wp-admin URL; injected script then runs in that user’s authenticated browser context.
