Stored XSS via forged privileged-user request
Published Apr 24, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
CSRF in silencecm Twitter Card Generator 1.0.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to store scripts through forged web requests. Patchstack has not disclosed the affected settings handler or parameter, so the precise missing request-integrity check and storage operation remain undisclosed. A remote attacker must induce a higher-privileged WordPress user to submit the request; the stored script then runs when affected output is viewed.
