Reflected XSS via unescaped request URI attribute
Published Jul 13, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024
Reflected XSS in If-So Dynamic Content Personalization before 1.8.0.4 allows remote attackers to execute scripts via crafted URLs. The plugin writes the unescaped $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] value into an HTML attribute on its administrative license page. An administrator must open the crafted URL in an old browser that does not encode the injected characters, after which the script executes in the site's origin.
