CVE-2020-11001: Possible XSS attack in Wagtail
(updated )
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists on the page revision comparison view within the Wagtail admin interface. A user with a limited-permission editor account for the Wagtail admin could potentially craft a page revision history that, when viewed by a user with higher privileges, could perform actions with that user’s credentials. The vulnerability is not exploitable by an ordinary site visitor without access to the Wagtail admin.
