## Technical details

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in MotoPress Hotel Booking Lite version 4.2.4 due to improper neutralization of user-supplied input. Authenticated attackers with permissions to create or edit accommodation types can inject malicious JavaScript into the 'title' and 'excerpt' parameters. Because this input is stored in the database and later rendered without sufficient sanitization on the public-facing accommodations page, the script executes in the context of any user's browser who visits that page. This is tracked as CWE-79 and can be exploited over the network with low administrative privileges.
