CVE-2025-25823

Stored XSS via unneutralized article header

Published Feb 26, 2025 · Updated Jul 5, 2026

Stored cross-site scripting in Emlog Pro 2.5.4 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts through a crafted article header. The /admin/article.php workflow accepts an article-header payload and renders it without sufficient neutralization, enabling script or HTML injection. The public record does not explain how attackers reach the administrative editor, but another user must render the poisoned header for execution.
