Stored XSS via unescaped widget URLs
Published Jul 22, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Stored XSS in Pixel Gallery 1.6.7 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts through widget URLs. The plugin stores URL values from all Elementor gallery widgets without sufficient input sanitization and renders them without adequate output escaping. Contributor-level access is sufficient; the injected script runs in each visitor's browser when an affected page opens, enabling page-context data access or content changes.
