Subscriber-level stored XSS via unescaped style value
Published Aug 2, 2026 · Updated Aug 2, 2026
Stored XSS in ThemeWant RT Mega Menu before 1.5.2 allows remote authenticated users to execute JavaScript in visitors' browsers. The menu-settings AJAX action accepts a subscriber-supplied width value, and public navigation rendering writes it into a style attribute without escaping. Any logged-in subscriber can obtain the nonce; a visitor who hovers the altered menu runs the stored event handler, enabling session or site takeover.
