Description
The FunnelCockpit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘error’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick an administrative user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

AI Analysis

Impact

The FunnelCockpit WordPress plugin contains a reflected XSS flaw due to the unsanitized handling of the error parameter, which can be reflected in the page output. If an attacker can trick an administrative user into visiting a crafted URL containing the error value, the script will run in the admin’s browser, potentially stealing session cookies, defacing sites, or executing further attacks. The weakness is a classic input validation error (CWE‑79).

Affected Systems

All installations of the FunnelCockpit plugin for WordPress up to version 1.4.3 are affected. Users should verify whether their deployment is running any of these releases and plan an upgrade to a fixed version.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.1 indicates a medium severity vulnerability, and the EPSS score of less than 1% shows a low probability of exploitation in the wild. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but since it relies on social engineering to target administrators it can still pose a significant risk. The probable attack vector is an unauthenticated attacker sending a malicious link to a privileged user who follows it, leading to the execution of arbitrary client‑side code.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade FunnelCockpit to the latest release (>=1.4.4) which removes the unsanitized error parameter.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, modify the plugin’s output handling to escape the error parameter using WordPress’s esc_html() or similar functions before echoing it.
  • As a temporary measure, disable the error parameter or restrict its exposure by adding custom code that blocks its use from non‑admin contexts.
