Description
The Gift Certificate Creator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘receip_address’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.0 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 Gift Certificate Creator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to reflected cross‑site scripting through the receip_address parameter. Because the plugin does not sanitize or escape user input, an attacker can embed arbitrary JavaScript. When a user clicks a crafted link that includes the malicious parameter, the script is executed in the context of the victim’s browser, allowing attackers to steal session cookies, redirect users, or perform other malicious actions that compromise confidentiality and integrity. The flaw allows unauthenticated actors to inject code without needing elevated privileges.

Affected Systems

All installations of the Gift Certificate Creator WordPress plugin up to and including version 1.1.0 are affected. The plugin can be identified by the vendor product name bobcares_plugins:Gift Certificate Creator.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.1 indicates a moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1 % suggests a low likelihood of exploitation in the near term. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Exploitation requires a user to interact with a crafted URL containing the receip_address parameter, making it a user‑interaction‑dependent, reflected XSS attack.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Gift Certificate Creator plugin to the latest available version (1.1.1 or later) to eliminate the reflected XSS flaw.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, configure a web application firewall or security plugin (e.g., Wordfence) to block requests containing script tags or unescaped characters in the receip_address parameter as a temporary workaround.
  • Deploy a strict Content‑Security‑Policy that disallows inline scripts to mitigate the impact of any remaining reflected XSS vectors.
