Admin-session script execution via unescaped editrecord parameter
Published Jul 13, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024
Reflected XSS in Tips and Tricks HQ WP eMember before 10.6.7 allows remote attackers to execute scripts through a crafted admin link. The member-edit page writes the editrecord query parameter into its HTML response without sanitization or output escaping. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to open the crafted URL, after which the injected script runs in that administrator's browser session.
