Stored XSS via unescaped custom field metadata
Published Feb 18, 2026 · Updated Feb 18, 2026
Stored XSS in VideoWhisper Video Share VOD 2.7.11 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts via custom field values. The shortcode rendering paths in inc/shortcodes.php output stored custom-field metadata without sufficient sanitization or contextual escaping. Editor-level access is required, and exploitation is limited to multisite installations or sites where unfiltered_html is disabled; injected code runs when a page containing the field is viewed.
