CVE-2025-11502Network attack vector

Stored XSS via unescaped FAQ shortcode attributes

Published Nov 1, 2025 · Updated Nov 1, 2025

Stored XSS in Magazine3 Schema & Structured Data for WP & AMP 1.51 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts. The saswp_tiny_multi_faq_render function places user-controlled saswp_tiny_multiple_faq shortcode attributes into generated FAQ markup without sufficient sanitization or contextual output escaping. Contributor-level access is sufficient to store the payload in a page, and the script runs in a visitor's browser whenever that page is viewed.
