Description
The Jabbernotification plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the admin.php PATH_INFO in all versions up to, and including, 0.99-RC2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Jabbernotification WordPress plugin processes the PATH_INFO parameter of admin.php without sufficient sanitization or escaping, which allows an attacker to inject arbitrary JavaScript that is reflected back to the victim’s browser. When a user follows a crafted link, the injected script runs in the context of the site, potentially enabling client‑side code execution. No other functionality is disclosed as a consequence of this flaw.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the missi Jabbernotification WordPress plugin in all releases up to and including version 0.99‑RC2. Any WordPress site that installs or continues to use one of these versions of the plugin is impacted. No other vendors or products are mentioned.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.1 indicates moderate severity. The EPSS score of < 1% suggests that exploitation has a low probability at present and the vulnerability is not yet listed in CISA KEV. An unauthenticated attacker can create a malicious link that, when opened by a site visitor, triggers the reflected XSS payload. The threat is limited to users who access the compromised site and click the injected link.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Jabbernotification plugin to a version newer than 0.99‑RC2 to remove the affected admin.php code.
  • If an update is not immediately available, block or restrict access to admin.php by preventing any request containing PATH_INFO in the web server configuration.
  • If the plugin is not essential, consider disabling or uninstalling it until a patched version is released.
