Vulnerable Endpoint: /dashboard/shared?section=settings
Test Payload: <script>alert('PoC VulDB Automad CMS')</script>
Steps to Reproduce:
1 - Go to the admin panel: /dashboard/page
2 - Navigate to “General Data and Files”
3 - Inject the payload in the Brand field
4 - Click Publish
5 - Visit: /demo/{page-id}/
The payload is executed, confirming the stored XSS |
