Summary
The Charitable WordPress plugin before version 1.8.5.3 does not sanitize and escape one of its campaign image text fields before outputting it in an HTML attribute. This allows users with high-privilege campaign-management roles to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks that execute on the front-end campaign page.
Risk Assessment
XSS attacks can lead to user session theft, redirection to malicious sites, or theft of sensitive data, endangering visitor security and organizational reputation.
Recommendation
Update the Charitable plugin to version 1.8.5.3 or later, which includes proper XSS protections. Additionally, restrict campaign management privileges to trusted users only.
