Stored XSS via missing nonce validation
Published Aug 28, 2025 · Updated May 12, 2026
CSRF in OffClicks Invisible Optin 1.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to store malicious scripts through a forged settings request. The plugin's settings-update function persists request data without correctly validating a WordPress nonce, allowing attacker-controlled script content to be stored. Exploitation requires an authenticated administrator to follow a crafted link or submit a forged form, after which the stored script executes for visitors.
