Administrator stored XSS via unsanitized settings
Published Apr 15, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in MWW Disclaimer Buttons 3.0.2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to run scripts in visitors' browsers via admin settings. The plugin stores administrator-supplied settings without sufficient input sanitization or output escaping, then renders the stored values on pages. Administrator privileges are required, and exposure is limited to multisite installations or sites where unfiltered_html is disabled.
