Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

An attacker can embed malicious scripts that are reflected back into the HTTP response by entering specially crafted input through the InFunding plugin’s parameters. The payload is executed in the victim’s browser when the URL is visited, enabling cookie theft, session hijacking, defacement, or other client‑side attacks. The CVSS score of 7.1 indicates high severity and the vulnerability is exploitable without authentication or elevated privileges.

Affected Systems

The InFunding plugin by inwavethemes, version 1.0 and earlier is affected. No specific sub‑versions are listed, so all releases through 1.0 are impacted.

Risk and Exploitability

The plugin’s input fields are exposed to the web front‑end, making the attack vector website‑directed and easily reachable via phishing or social‑engineering. Although the EPSS score is below 1%—suggesting a low exploitation probability at present—the vulnerability’s high severity and the commonality of XSS exploitation mean an attacker could still achieve user compromise if this issue is publicized. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but its impact remains significant.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the InFunding plugin to a version newer than 1.0, if a patched release is available.
  • If an updated release cannot be obtained, remove or disable the plugin to stop the exposed input vector.
  • Apply standard WordPress hardening practices—such as limiting user permissions, regularly scanning for malware, and validating user input—to reduce the risk of similar XSS flaws in future plugins.
