AI Analysis

Impact

Improper neutralization of user input during web page generation allows an attacker to store malicious scripts that will execute in a visitor's browser when they view affected content. This client‑side script execution can lead to session hijacking, cookie theft, defacement, or the delivery of phishing content, thereby compromising user confidentiality and integrity.

Affected Systems

WordPress Broadly for WordPress plugin, versions from the initial release through 3.0.2, is affected. The vulnerability exists in the plugin’s data handling and rendering logic for user‑supplied content.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.9 indicates moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of exploitation in the wild. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, it is inferred that the likely attack vector is through the plugin’s input fields that store content permanently and display it later, allowing an attacker to embed malicious script that will run when any user loads the affected page.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Broadly for WordPress plugin to the latest release (v3.0.3 or newer) that contains the fix.
  • If no update is available, disable or uninstall the plugin until a patched version is released.
  • Sanitize any content stored by the plugin by ensuring all output is escaped with WordPress functions such as esc_html() or esc_js(), to prevent injected script execution.
