Published Aug 30, 2026 · Updated Aug 30, 2026
Stored XSS in SOGO Add Script to Individual Pages Header Footer through 3.9 allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript. The post metabox saves custom header and footer script values without sanitizing or escaping them or requiring the unfiltered_html capability. Contributor-level access is sufficient; the payload runs when an administrator reviews the post and for any visitor after publication.
