Analysis

Technical impact

The Echo RSS Feed Post Generator Plugin for WordPress contains an improper neutralization of input during web page generation that allows attackers to inject arbitrary client‑side scripts. This reflected Cross‑Site Scripting flaw (CWE‑79) can lead to cookie theft, session hijacking, defacement of pages, or the execution of malicious code in the victim’s browser, thereby compromising confidentiality and integrity for users who view affected pages.

Affected Systems
