Reflected XSS via unencoded Title search
Published Aug 26, 2025 · Updated Aug 26, 2025
Reflected XSS in Mtons Mblog 3.0 through 3.5.0 allows remote attackers to inject script through the Admin Panel's Title search. The /admin/post/list handler returns the user-controlled Title query parameter in the article-list response without validation or output encoding. Exploitation requires an administrator to load the crafted search result, causing script execution in that administrator's browser context.
