Stored XSS via forged privileged-user requests
Published Apr 9, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Cross-site request forgery in theode Language Field 0.9 and earlier allows remote attackers to store scripts via crafted requests. Published materials do not identify the affected request handler, missing request-verification operation, or persistent field that accepts the script. Exploitation requires an authenticated privileged WordPress user to act on the attacker-controlled request, after which the stored script executes for later viewers.
