Cross Site Scripting Vulnerability in Flatpress CMS 

介绍

# FlatPress CMS Stored XSS in v1.3.1  
**CVE-2025-25460**  
**Author:** Athul S  

## Description  
A stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was identified in **FlatPress 1.3.1** within the "Add Entry" feature. This vulnerability allows **authenticated attackers** to inject malicious JavaScript payloads into blog posts, which execute when other users view the posts. The issue arises due to **improper input sanitization** of the **"TextArea" field** in the blog entry submission form.

## Attack Vectors  
- An **authenticated attacker** can inject a malicious **JavaScript payload** into the blog post entry.  
- The payload executes when an **admin or another user** visits the affected blog entry.  
- This could lead to **session hijacking, phishing, or other client-side attacks**.

## Proof of Concept (PoC)  

### Steps to Reproduce:  
1. **Login as an Admin** in FlatPress v1.3.1.  
2. Navigate to the **"Add Entry"** section.  
3. Insert the following **XSS payload** in the text area:  

   ```html
   <script>alert('XSS Payload Triggered');</script>
   ```
4. Save the Entry and View the Post

The JavaScript payload will execute when the page loads, triggering an **XSS alert box**.
