Contributor-level stored XSS via unescaped page content
Published Mar 26, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in themefunction Newseqo 2.1.1 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts into WordPress pages. The published record attributes the flaw to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, but the affected parameter, template, and function remain undisclosed. Contributor-level access is required, and the stored script executes when another user views the injected page, enabling browser-context data access or page modification.
