Exploitation Conditions

Remote unauthenticated attacker crafts malicious URL containing XSS payload and sends it to victim. Victim must click the link in skygroup Miti versions prior to 1.5.3. No special configuration required; reflected XSS against default installation.

Impact

While a CVSS score and EPSS probability score are not provided for this CVE, the underlying risk is moderate to high based on available signals. Reflected XSS vulnerabilities typically have a CVSS vector of AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R (Network vector, Low complexity, No privileges required, User Interaction required), suggesting broad attack surface and low barrier to exploitation. The reflected nature of the XSS means an attacker must trick a user into clicking a malicious link, which adds a social engineering component but does not significantly reduce real-world exploitability—phishing and link injection are well-established attack techniques. The lack of KEV status and EPSS data suggests this may be a lower-priority vulnerability in terms of widespread active exploitation, but the existence of a documented patch in version 1.5.3 and reporting via Patchstack (a reputable security intelligence platform) indicates this was a genuine finding that required remediation. Given that WordPress themes are widely deployed and many administrators delay updates, this vulnerability likely poses a meaningful risk to unpatched Miti installations.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious URL containing JavaScript payload in a query parameter (e.g., https://victim-site.com/?search=<script>alert('XSS')</script>) and sends it to a website administrator or user via email or social media. When the victim clicks the link and the unpatched Miti theme renders the search parameter without proper output encoding, the injected JavaScript executes in the victim's browser within the context of the website domain, allowing the attacker to steal session cookies, capture form data, or redirect the user to a phishing site. No public proof-of-concept code is referenced in available sources, but the straightforward nature of reflected XSS vulnerabilities means exploitation requires minimal technical sophistication.

AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 25, 2026

A Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the skygroup Miti theme for WordPress, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by users. This vulnerability affects Miti versions prior to 1.5.3, and an attacker can craft malicious URLs to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of a victim's browser session, potentially stealing credentials, session tokens, or performing actions on behalf of the user. No CVSS score, EPSS metric, or KEV status information is currently available, but the vulnerability has been documented by Patchstack with a patch available in version 1.5.3.

RemediationAI

Upgrade the Miti theme to version 1.5.3 or later immediately to address this vulnerability. Website administrators should access the WordPress theme management dashboard, verify the current installed version of Miti, and apply the available update through the standard WordPress update mechanism. Until the update can be deployed, implement defense-in-depth measures including: enforce Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict inline script execution; enable WordPress security hardening plugins that provide input validation and XSS filtering; restrict administrative access and user permissions to minimize the impact of successful XSS exploitation; and educate users about phishing risks given the social engineering component of reflected XSS attacks.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This vulnerability is classified as CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), which represents a failure to sanitize or properly encode user-supplied input before rendering it in HTML output. The Miti theme (cpe:2.3:a:skygroup:miti:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a WordPress theme, and the reflected XSS occurs when unsanitized query parameters or form inputs are echoed directly into the HTTP response without escaping HTML entities or applying output encoding. In WordPress themes, this typically occurs in template files where $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST variables are rendered without using WordPress escaping functions such as esc_html(), esc_attr(), or wp_kses_post(). The attack vector is network-based and requires no authentication, making it accessible to unauthenticated threat actors.

DescriptionCVE.org

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in skygroup Miti miti allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects Miti: from n/a through < 1.5.3.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

The skygroup Miti WordPress theme contains a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability (CVE-2026-25350) that allows attackers to inject malicious scripts through crafted URLs, potentially compromising user credentials and session integrity for any website running affected versions. Organizations using Miti versions prior to 1.5.3 should prioritize immediate patching to prevent credential theft and unauthorized account activity.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

Apply vendor patch. Additionally, implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict script execution, deploy a WAF with XSS detection rules, and disable the Miti theme temporarily if immediate patching is not feasible.
