Administrator-stored script execution via unescaped settings
Published Jan 14, 2026 · Updated Jan 14, 2026
Stored XSS in Real Post Slider Lite 2.4 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject scripts through plugin settings. The plugin stores administrator-supplied setting values without sufficient input sanitization and later renders them without output escaping. Exploitation requires administrator access on multisite installations or sites with unfiltered_html disabled; injected scripts execute when a user visits an affected page.
