Stored XSS via unrestricted Section Title headings
Published Nov 6, 2025 · Updated Nov 6, 2025
Stored XSS in the Section Title block in CodeYatri Gutenify 1.5.7 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject browser scripts. The block accepts an unrestricted heading-tag value and persists it into generated page markup instead of limiting it to safe heading tags. An unauthenticated attacker can plant the payload, but execution requires a privileged user to visit or submit affected content; the script then runs in that user's browser context.
