Published Jul 2, 2025 · Updated Jul 10, 2025
Stored XSS in MintyDocs 1.43.x before 1.43.2 allows remote attackers to execute script in browsers through crafted wiki content. Wikimedia identifies stored XSS and a corrective code review but does not publicly disclose the affected function or exact missing output-encoding operation. Network access is sufficient according to the published score; exploitation exposes data visible to the browser, with no reported integrity or availability impact.
