Contributor-level script execution via stored XSS
Published Jul 20, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in PootlePress Caxton 1.30.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts via unspecified vectors. The public CNA record and upstream security changelog do not identify the affected field, function, or faulty neutralization operation, leaving the code-level mechanism undisclosed. Contributor-level access and interaction by a later viewer are required; execution occurs in that viewer's browser context.
