Stored XSS via unescaped delay shortcode attribute
Published Aug 22, 2026 · Updated Aug 22, 2026
Stored XSS in WPChill Image Photo Gallery Final Tiles Grid 3.6.12 and earlier lets remote authenticated users inject scripts via delay. The shortcode renderer in lib/gallery-class.php places the untrusted delay attribute into generated page output without sufficient sanitization or output escaping. Contributor-level access is required, and the stored script executes in the browser of any user who opens the injected page.
