Administrator-level stored XSS via unescaped settings
Published Sep 22, 2025 · Updated Apr 28, 2026
Stored XSS in Tomas Cordero Safety Exit 1.8.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts through plugin settings. The administrative configuration path stores URL, CSS, icon, and JavaScript-related values without adequate input sanitization and later emits them without sufficient output escaping. Administrator privileges and a subsequent page visit are required; injected script runs in the visitor's browser under the site's origin.
