Technical details

A vulnerability exists in the kutethemes Armania theme (versions up to and including 1.4.8) due to improper neutralization of script-related HTML tags. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to perform Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and arbitrary shortcode execution. The root cause is a failure to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input before rendering it in a web page. An attacker can exploit this to inject malicious scripts or content, potentially leading to session hijacking or the creation of phishing pages. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released.
