AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an improper neutralization of input during web page generation that enables stored XSS within the History Log by click5 plugin. Malicious scripts can be persisted in log entries and executed when a site visitor loads a page that displays the log, potentially leading to credential theft, session hijacking, or defacement. The weakness is classified as CWE‑79.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites using the History Log by click5 plugin version 1.0.13 or earlier are affected. Any site that has not yet upgraded beyond 1.0.13 and has the plugin installed is vulnerable to this issue.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 indicates moderate severity. The EPSS score of < 1% reflects a very low probability of exploitation in the wild, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers could exploit this by creating or manipulating log entries; the resulting JavaScript would run in browsers of users who view the log page, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, or availability of site content.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the History Log by click5 plugin to a version newer than 1.0.13 to apply the vendor‑provided fix for stored XSS.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, remove or deactivate the History Log by click5 plugin to eliminate the stored XSS entry point.
  • Restrict access to any pages that display the log so that only administrators can view them, and ensure that any logging input is properly sanitized and escaped if custom logging is required.
  • Deploy a Web Application Firewall rule that blocks JavaScript payloads being inserted into the plugin's log fields.
