What the vulnerability does
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Kriesi Enfold allows DOM-Based XSS. This issue affects Enfold: from n/a through 7.1.3.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
Enfold versions up to 7.1.3 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject malicious scripts. When another user views the affected content, the script executes in their browser with the same permissions. The vulnerability requires user interaction and can affect other users on the site.
What an attacker can do
Inject malicious scripts that execute when other users view the affected content, potentially stealing session data or performing actions on their behalf.
Potential impact on your site
Authenticated users can inject scripts that compromise other users' sessions or data. Site admins should audit user-generated content and update Enfold immediately.
Conditions required to exploit
Attacker must have a low-privilege account (e.g., contributor or subscriber) and the victim must view the page containing the injected script.
