Reflected XSS via unescaped topic parameter
Published Mar 19, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Reflected XSS in Mark Tilly MyCurator Content Curation 3.76 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute scripts via the topic parameter. The plugin reflects the topic request parameter into a generated page without sufficient sanitization or output escaping. Exploitation requires a user to open an attacker-crafted link, causing the script to run in the affected site's browser origin and act with that user's session.
