Client-side script execution via reflected XSS
Published Jan 22, 2026 · Updated Jan 22, 2026
Reflected XSS in Arevico WP Simple Redirect 1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute script in a visitor's browser. Patchstack and the plugin's public materials do not disclose the vulnerable request parameter, code locus, or missing output-neutralization operation. Exploitation is unauthenticated but requires a visitor to open attacker-controlled content, after which script runs in the affected site's browser origin.
