Authenticated browser script execution via undisclosed DOM handling
Published Nov 19, 2024 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Cross-site scripting in Bread & Butter 7.4.857 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts in visitors' browsers. The CNA labels the flaw DOM-based, while Wordfence calls it stored; neither identifies the affected script, DOM source, sink, or data path. Contributor-level access and a victim's interaction with attacker-controlled content are required, exposing data and actions available to the victim's WordPress session.
