Stored script execution via assignment PDF upload
Published Mar 10, 2025 · Updated Mar 10, 2025
Stored XSS in Unifiedtransform 2.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts in other users' browsers via an assignment upload. The Create Assignment workflow accepts a PDF containing an XSS payload, stores it, and exposes it through View Assignment without preventing browser-side script execution. A teacher account is required to create the assignment, and execution occurs when another user opens it, exposing that user's session context to the script.
