Ivory Search <= 5.5.13 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'menu_gcse' and 'nothing_found_text' Parameters_CVE-2026-1053

{
    "lastseen": "",
    "description": "The Ivory Search \u2013 WordPress Search Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 5.5.13 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.",
