Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The Custom Field For WP Job Manager plugin exhibits an improper neutralization of input during web page generation, causing user supplied data to be rendered without escaping. This flaw creates a reflected cross‑site scripting vulnerability that can allow an attacker to deliver malicious JavaScript to a victim’s browser. The weakness, classified as CWE‑79, occurs because the plugin does not sanitize the content it displays.

Affected Systems

The plugin Custom Field For WP Job Manager from the vendor Theme Funda is affected. All releases up through version 1.3 contain the flaw; there is no indication that earlier releases are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

Based on the description, the likely attack vector is an unauthenticated reflected XSS delivered via user‑supplied data that the plugin echoes without sanitization. Attackers can trigger this by supplying malicious payloads in any input that the plugin outputs, and no authentication is required, meaning any visitor to a page that incorporates the plugin could be exposed. With a CVSS score of 7.1 the vulnerability carries medium severity. An EPSS score of < 1% suggests that the likelihood of exploitation is currently low, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Custom Field For WP Job Manager to version 1.4 or later, which removes the input neutralization flaw.
  • If an update is not possible, temporarily disable the plugin or its custom field functionality until a patch is applied.
  • Apply server‑side output escaping to any data that the plugin displays, or deploy a Web Application Firewall with XSS protection.
  • Enforce a Content Security Policy that blocks inline scripts and restricts the sources of executable code.
