Title
Postiz stored XSS in public preview page
Summary
Postiz is an AI social media scheduling tool. From version 2.21.6 to before version 2.21.7, any authenticated user who can create a post can store arbitrary HTML in post content by tampering their own save request and send the public preview link /p/<postId>?share=true to another user. The preview page renders that stored HTML with dangerouslySetInnerHTML on the main application origin. This issue has been patched in version 2.21.7.
