validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-c8hg-xchr-rq65 ↗EUVD-2026-91244 ↗
description
Relevanssi – A Better Search for WordPress is affected through version 4.28.3. An unauthenticated attacker may cause script to run in the browser of someone viewing affected content, but exploitation requires a non-empty "Allowable tags in excerpts" configuration with a relevant tag-name prefix.
mitigation
Upgrade to a release newer than 4.28.3 when available. Until then, clear the "Allowable tags in excerpts" setting to reduce exposure.
outcome
Check only, differential: the check fires on the vulnerable build and is silent on the patched one.
