Victim-browser script execution via unsafe stored content
Published Mar 25, 2026 · Updated Mar 25, 2026
Stored XSS in Northern Beaches Websites WP Custom Admin Interface 7.42 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject web scripts. The plugin stores subscriber-supplied content and later renders it into WordPress pages without sufficient input sanitization or output escaping. Subscriber-level access is required, and the script runs when another user opens the injected page, exposing that user's browser session to script actions.
