AI Analysis

Impact

The Recently Purchased Products For Woo WordPress plugin is affected by stored Cross‑Site Scripting because the view parameter is not properly sanitized or escaped. This weakness (CWE‑79) allows an attacker who can supply the view parameter to store malicious scripts that are rendered whenever a visitor loads the affected page. The vulnerability grants the ability to execute arbitrary client‑side code, potentially affecting the user experience and providing a foothold for other attacks that rely on scripted payloads.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites that have installed the Recently Purchased Products For Woo plugin from the vendor worldweb, in any version up to and including 1.1.3. The flaw is independent of the WordPress core version and can be triggered on any user who has Contributor or higher access to the site.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.4 indicates moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low current chance of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, implying no confirmed widespread attacks. The likely attack vector requires the attacker to authenticate with a Contributor or higher role and supply a crafted view parameter in a request that the plugin stores; the stored payload is then served to all site visitors who view the affected page.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Recently Purchased Products For Woo plugin to the latest release that implements input sanitization for the view parameter.
  • If an immediate upgrade is unavailable, prevent Contributors and higher roles from accessing or manipulating the view parameter, or disable the plugin for those roles until the issue is fixed.
  • Add a custom filter to the plugin or site code that performs output escaping on the view parameter to block stored XSS while awaiting the official fix.
