AI Analysis

Impact

The wpWax Logo Carousel Slider plugin contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw. Unsanitized input is saved and subsequently rendered as part of the slider’s output, permitting an attacker to inject malicious scripts that execute within the browsers of users who view the affected content. This improper neutralization of input can lead to client‑side code execution for any visitor.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the wpWax Logo Carousel Slider plugin through version 2.1.3 are affected. The vendor is wpWax and the product is Logo Carousel Slider. The affected build range is n/a through <= 2.1.3 as indicated by the CNA.

Risk and Exploitability

CVSS score 6.5 indicates moderate severity. EPSS < 1% reflects a very low probability of exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Based on the description, the likely attack vector involves an attacker with administrative access to the plugin’s interface or the ability to submit content that is stored and later displayed, enabling the stored XSS payload to be delivered to site visitors.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Logo Carousel Slider plugin to a version that contains the XSS fix; if a patched release is unavailable, remove or deactivate the plugin until an update is released.
  • Review and delete any slider content that contains suspicious or unexpected script code to eliminate existing stored payloads.
  • Apply a content filtering layer that sanitizes or escapes output from the plugin until a proper fix is in place.
  • Run a site‑wide XSS vulnerability scan to ensure no other injected content remains.
