Stored XSS via forged admin AJAX requests
Published May 16, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
CSRF in Shayan Farhang Pazhooh ShayanWeb Admin FontChanger 1.9.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to store scripts via admin AJAX. The plugin’s admin AJAX settings handlers accept attacker-controlled requests without reliable nonce validation and persist insufficiently sanitized values. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to visit attacker-controlled content, after which the stored script executes in a later viewer’s browser.
