Stored XSS via unrestricted HTML file upload
Published Sep 10, 2024 · Updated Apr 14, 2025
Stored XSS in ELADMIN 2.7 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts in another administrator's browser. LocalStoreController accepts an HTML file containing active script through the local-storage upload endpoint and publishes it at a directly accessible URL without neutralizing the content. An account with local-storage upload permission must plant the file and induce another user to open its URL, where the script can read or alter data accessible to that browser session.
