AI Analysis

Impact

The Team Members – Best WordPress Team Plugin is vulnerable to stored cross‑site scripting through the social link icon fields in all versions up to 3.4.1. The vulnerability results from insufficient input sanitization and lack of output escaping, allowing an authenticated user with a Contributor role or higher to embed arbitrary scripts. Once executed, these scripts run in the browsers of any visitor to the page containing the injected content, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or data exfiltration.

Affected Systems

The affected product is the wpspeedo Team Members Showcase plugin for WordPress, any installation using version 3.4.1 or earlier.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 6.4 and an EPSS score of less than 1 %, indicating moderate impact but low probability of exploitation. It is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The likely attack path requires the attacker to log in with Contributor or higher privileges, edit a social link icon entry, and then have an end user visit the modified page. Because the exploit requires authenticated access, the immediate risk to sites without Contributor accounts is lower, but once such accounts exist the risk increases.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Team Members plugin to the latest available version (3.4.2 or later).
  • If an upgrade is not yet possible, disable or remove the social link icon functionality for Contributor‑level users, or constrain Contributor users to read‑only roles.
  • Apply a generic input‑sanitization filter or use a security plugin that ensures output is properly escaped for all custom fields.
