Stored cross-site scripting via forged requests
Published Nov 19, 2024 · Updated May 11, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in Microkid Custom Author URL 2.0.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to store cross-site scripting payloads. The published advisory does not identify the affected handler or parameter, or the missing validation that lets a forged request persist unsafe content. An authenticated privileged user must click a malicious link, visit a crafted page, or submit a form; later rendering executes the stored script in that user's browser context.
