CVE-2025-53692Network attack vector

Unauthenticated cross-site scripting

Published Sep 21, 2025 · Updated Sep 21, 2025

Cross-site scripting in Sitecore XM and XP 9.2 through 10.4 allows remote attackers to execute script in a user's browser via crafted web content. Sitecore has not published the affected request, parameter, rendering path, or the input-neutralization error that permits the injection. No authentication is required, but a user must interact with attacker-controlled content; successful execution can disclose browser-accessible data or alter page content.
