Stored XSS via unescaped image metadata
Published Jul 26, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Cross-site scripting in WonderPlugin Wonder Slider and Wonder Slider Lite 14.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute scripts. The browser-side slider engine inserts insufficiently sanitized image title and description values into the page DOM without adequate output escaping. Contributor-level WordPress access suffices to store payloads that execute when a page containing the injected slider is viewed, allowing script actions in the viewer's browser context.
