Unauthenticated script injection via unescaped reflected input
Published May 23, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Reflected XSS in GoodLayers Goodlayers Hostel 3.1.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute scripts via crafted links. The plugin reflects attacker-controlled request input into generated HTML without sufficient sanitization or output escaping; the affected parameter and code locus are undisclosed. Exploitation requires no account, but a user must follow a crafted link or otherwise submit the request, causing the script to run in that user's browser context.
