Contributor-level stored XSS via unescaped page content
Published Mar 31, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in Aesopinteractive Aesop Story Engine 2.3.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts into pages. Published records identify insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in page content, but do not name the affected function or parameter. Contributor-level access is required, and the stored script runs when another user opens the injected page, exposing that user's browser session to script actions.
