Summary

The AivahThemes Hostme v2 theme for WordPress, from n/a through 7.0, contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting flaw (CWE-79). Input is not neutralized when the page is generated, so scripts can run in the page. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit it if a user interacts with a crafted page, which affects the user's browser with low confidentiality, integrity and availability impact.
