Stored XSS via nonce-free settings update
Published Jan 28, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in MailUp Auto Subscription 1.1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to store malicious scripts in settings. The mas_options function accepts attacker-controlled settings updates without correctly validating a request nonce. A site administrator must submit the forged request, after which the stored script content can execute in an administrative browser context.
