Session takeover via unvalidated incoming URL reflection
Published Apr 29, 2025 · Updated Apr 29, 2025
Reflected XSS in YesWiki before 4.5.4 allows remote authenticated users to take over victim sessions through a crafted link. The deletepage handler URL-decodes the incomingurl request parameter without validating it as a URL, allowing script markup to reach the response. The attacker requires administrative access, and a victim must follow the link; the executed script can steal session cookies or alter page content.
