Nexus Repository 3 was found to be vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting (XSS). A user with the nexus:blobstores:create or nexus:blobstores:update permission could set a blob store name containing malicious script content, which would later execute in the browser of another user viewing system health-check status. This issue has been fixed in version 3.95.0.

The Code Embed WordPress plugin before version 2.6.1 contains a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability via its external URL embed feature in post content. This flaw allows a contributor-level attacker to embed malicious JavaScript in a pending post that executes when an administrator or editor previews the post. The vulnerability arises because the plugin fetches and inserts remote URL content without proper output sanitization or capability checks. This issue is fixed in version 2.6.1.

Joomla Extension - joomshaper.com - Unauthenticated stored XSS in Shapes API endpoint SP Page Builder < 6.7.0 - An unauthenticated attacker can store malicious JavaScript in a Joomla site's database via a single HTTP request. When an administrator opens the SP Page Builder editor, the JavaScript executes in their browser automatically..

The ShareOpenly WordPress plugin prior to version 1.2.1 contains a Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability caused by the absence of WordPress's `esc_url()` escaping function on the `$url` variable before it is rendered into HTML content. This variable is constructed from `home_url( add_query_arg( array(), $wp->request ) )` and is concatenated directly into an HTML `href` attribute on every singular post or page where the plugin's sharing link is displayed. WordPress's security handbook mandates that every URL placed in HTML output must be passed through `esc_url()`, which both HTML-encodes special characters (converting `"`, `<`, `>` into their safe HTML entity equivalents) and strips dangerous URI schemes such as `javascript:` and `data:`. The omission of this function means that if the `$url` value ever contains HTML-special characters or a dangerous URI scheme — through a `home_url` WordPress filter applied by another plugin or theme, through certain web server or hosting configurations, or through future code changes — the unescaped content will be injected verbatim into the rendered HTML of every post or page on the site. Version 1.2.1 contains a patch for the issue.

Tobit Laboratories AG TeamDavid's Webbox application contains a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. By sending a specially crafted link including an arbitrary path, an XSS payload or the parameter “EntryInfo”, and the parameter “!templateName=entryMail”, an attacker can cause the payload to execute in the victim’s browser when they click the link. This issue affects TeamDavid through Rollout 524.

The Meow Gallery WordPress plugin before 5.5.2 does not escape an attachment's alt text before outputting it into an attribute of the link it builds for linked galleries, allowing users with the Author role or above to store a JavaScript payload that executes in the browser of any visitor (including administrators) who views a post containing such a gallery.

The BNE Testimonials WordPress plugin before 2.0.8.2 does not properly escape a shortcode attribute for a JavaScript context before echoing it into an inline script, allowing users with the contributor role and above to inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the browser of anyone viewing the affected content.

The Comments WordPress plugin before 7.6.60 does not properly escape a user-supplied URL before outputting it inside an HTML attribute, allowing unauthenticated users to store a Cross-Site Scripting payload that executes in the browser of any user, including administrators, who views the affected content.

The Subscribe2 WordPress plugin before 10.46 does not properly escape a user-supplied value before reflecting it into a public subscription form, leading to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting that executes in the browser of an unauthenticated visitor who interacts with the form through a crafted link.

ip-address is a library for parsing and manipulating IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in JavaScript. Prior to 10.1.1, Address6.group() and Address6.link() do not HTML-escape attacker-controlled content before embedding it in the HTML strings they return, and AddressError.parseMessage (emitted by the Address6 constructor for invalid input) can contain unescaped attacker-controlled content in one branch. An application that (1) passes untrusted input to Address6 and (2) renders the output of these methods, or the thrown error's parseMessage, as HTML (e.g. via innerHTML) is vulnerable to cross-site scripting. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.1.1.
