CVE-2025-13731
What it is
The Nexter Extension – Site Enhancements Toolkit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'nxt-year' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 4.4.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
