AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a stored cross‑site scripting flaw arising from improper neutralization of user input within the WordPress Stockholm Core plugin through version 2.4.6. Attackers can inject malicious JavaScript that persists in plugin‑generated content and is later delivered to any site visitor, allowing potential cookie theft, defacement, or other client‑side attacks. The weakness aligns with CWE‑79 – Improper Neutralization of Input.

Affected Systems

The affected product is the Select‑Themes Stockholm Core plugin for WordPress. All releases up to and including version 2.4.6 are vulnerable; any site deploying a version from the earliest release through 2.4.6 without upgrading remains at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 denotes moderate severity, while the EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a low current exploitation probability, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. Based on the description, the likely attack vector involves submitting malicious content through the plugin’s input interface, which the plugin stores and later outputs without proper sanitization. Once injected, the payload executes in the browsers of any user who views the affected page, potentially affecting all site visitors.

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Stockholm Core to any release newer than 2.4.6.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, remove or disable the plugin to block the vulnerable content paths.
  • Configure a web application firewall or implement input sanitization rules to prevent malicious JavaScript from being stored or rendered by the plugin.
