Stored XSS via unescaped preview metadata
Published Jul 21, 2025 · Updated Jul 22, 2025
Stored XSS in Real-time SEO for Drupal 2.0.0 and later before 2.2.0 allows remote attackers to inject script via crafted content metadata. The preview renderer inserts metadata from analyzed content into the search-result preview without sufficient output escaping. Exploitation requires the ability to author analyzed content and a user to view its preview; successful script runs in that viewer's browser context.
