Description
The Easy Social Feed – Social Photos Gallery – Post Feed – Like Box plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `data-caption` and `data-linktext` parameters in all versions up to, and including, 6.6.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Easy Social Feed – Social Photos Gallery and Post Feed plugin for WordPress is susceptible to stored Cross‑Site Scripting. Unsanitized user input in the data‑caption and data‑linktext fields allows an authenticated Contributor or higher to embed arbitrary JavaScript code. When a viewer loads a page that displays the injected content, the malicious script runs in the context of the site, potentially exposing session cookies, defacing content, or redirecting users to malicious sites. This weakness permits an attacker to compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the site for all users that view the affected posts or galleries.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Easy Social Feed – Social Photos Gallery and Post Feed plugin, version 6.6.7 or earlier. The vulnerability exists for all installations of the plugin where contributors have permissions to add or edit posts or gallery items.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.4 indicates moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% shows a low probability of exploitation at the time of analysis. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploit requires authenticated Contributor+ access and the ability to submit data to the plugin’s fields. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary script execution on pages viewed by other users who see the injected content.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Easy Social Feed plugin to the latest version (6.6.8 or newer) where the input is properly sanitized and escaped.

  • As an interim measure, restrict Contributor roles so that only Trusted administrators can create or edit posts and galleries, thereby limiting the ability to inject malicious content.
