What is CVE-2018-19933?

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Bolt CMS versions prior to 3.6.2, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts through user input fields. This issue is particularly exploitable via the Title field in the New Entry and Configured Entry forms. By clicking the preview button, an attacker can execute the injected script within the context of another user's session, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or data theft.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
