Stored script execution via active SVG uploads
Published Feb 27, 2026 · Updated Feb 27, 2026
Stored XSS in PluXml CMS 5.8.21 and 5.9.0-rc7 allows remote authenticated users to run JavaScript via uploaded SVG files. The media upload functionality accepts an SVG containing active script and stores it where a browser can render the payload without neutralization. A victim must open the uploaded image link in 5.8.21 or directly access the file in 5.9.0-rc7, enabling script execution in the site's origin.
