Low risk9th percentile - higher than 9% of all known CVEs
Summary
The ePaperFlip Publisher plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the 'publicationid' attribute of the `epaperflip_embed` shortcode in all versions up to and including 1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the shortcode attribute, allowing for the injection of web scripts.
Risk Assessment
Authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above can inject arbitrary scripts that will execute whenever a user accesses the injected page. This could lead to user data theft or session hijacking.
Recommendation
It is recommended to update the ePaperFlip Publisher plugin to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability. Additionally, implementing proper input sanitization and validation mechanisms is advisable.
Original NVD description (English source)
The ePaperFlip Publisher plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'publicationid' attribute of the `epaperflip_embed` shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the shortcode attribute which is injected directly into inline JavaScript. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
