Summary

The HivePress – Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 1.7.32) is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'message' parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. An authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access can inject scripts that execute in the victim's browser upon successful login via a form on the attacker's listing page.

Risk Assessment

An attacker with a subscriber account can inject malicious scripts that may steal login or session data, leading to account takeover.

Recommendation

Update the HivePress plugin to a version newer than 1.7.32 and consider disabling user listing submission if not necessary.

Original NVD description (English source)

The HivePress – Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'message' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.32 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires that the site administrator has enabled user listing submission, and the script executes in the victim's browser at the moment of successful login via the embedded form on the attacker's listing page.
