Browser-session script execution via unescaped Selectize rendering
Published Dec 1, 2025 · Updated Dec 2, 2025
Reflected XSS in Grav before 1.11.0-beta.1 allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts through a crafted page-edit request. The Admin plugin passes data[header][content][items] to Selectize renderers without HTML escaping, inserting attacker-controlled markup into the response. Page-editing access and an active victim action are required; exploitation runs script in the victim's browser session and can read or modify session-accessible data.
