CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedThe WP Crowdfunding plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) through the 'first_name' parameter, affecting all versions up to 2.2.1 due to inadequate input sanitization. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with subscriber-level access or higher to inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of an admin's browser session when viewing user profiles. WordPress site administrators and users of the WP Crowdfunding plugin should prioritize patching this vulnerability to mitigate the risk of cross-privilege script execution.
Original NVD Description
The WP Crowdfunding plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'first_name' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.1 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. An administrator viewing any user's profile via the ?show_user_id= parameter will render the attacker's stored payload in the admin's browser session, enabling cross-privilege script execution.
