CVE-2021-47931
Exponent CMS 2.6 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts through the Title and Text Block parameters in the text editing endpoint.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.21%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Exponent CMS 2.6 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts through the Title and Text Block parameters in the text editing endpoint. Attackers can inject iframe payloads with embedded SVG onload events to execute arbitrary JavaScript. The application also exposes database credentials in responses and lacks brute-force protection on authentication endpoints.
