Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The WP2APP plugin contains an improper neutralization of input during web page generation that allows attackers to inject malicious content. Because the plugin echoes user‑supplied data without sanitizing it, an attacker can craft a URL or form that returns a page containing a script. A victim who views the crafted page would have that script execute in their browser, enabling cookie theft, session hijack, or defacement.

Affected Systems

All WordPress installations running WP2APP 2.6.2 or earlier are vulnerable. The flaw exists in every release up to and including 2.6.2, so any use of the plugin poses a risk for the hosting site.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.1, indicating high impact. The EPSS score is reported as less than 1 percent, implying a low likelihood of exploitation, although the flaw is still technically exploitable. It is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The likely attack vector is the inclusion of malicious input in URLs or POST data that the plugin reflects back in the page. No automated exploit is documented, so manual testing is required for exploitation.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the WP2APP plugin to the latest version that removes the XSS vulnerability.
  • If an upgrade is not possible, disable the plugin or restrict its availability so normal users cannot trigger the vulnerable pages.
  • Configure a web‑application firewall or security plugin to filter or block reflected XSS payloads targeting WP2APP parameters.
