Stored XSS via forged privileged-user requests
Published Jun 20, 2025 · Updated May 12, 2026
CSRF in vgstef WP User Stylesheet Switcher 2.2.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to plant stored scripts through a forged request. Patchstack has not disclosed the affected request handler, input field, or storage operation that accepts the script payload without adequate request verification. Exploitation requires an authenticated higher-privileged user to visit attacker-controlled content, after which the stored script executes in a victim's browser.
