Administrator-context script execution via unescaped PHP_SELF
Published Jun 24, 2026 · Updated Jun 24, 2026
Reflected XSS in Pixelwelt Image Sizes on Demand 1.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to run scripts in an administrator's browser. The settings page inserts PHP_SELF into a form action without sanitizing the request path or escaping the resulting HTML attribute. Exploitation requires an administrator with manage_options to follow a crafted link; the reflected script runs in that administrator's site origin.
