Description
The List Subpages plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘title’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.6 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 List Subpages plugin for WordPress lets users define a "title" attribute for subpages. Because this input is not sanitized, the flaw is a CWE-79 Stored Cross‑Site Scripting vulnerability. An authenticated user with Contributor or higher privileges can inject arbitrary JavaScript into that title field. The malicious script is stored in the database and executes in the browsers of any visitor who opens the affected subpage, potentially enabling session hijacking, data theft, or defacement.

Affected Systems

All versions of the List Subpages plugin published by weblineindia up to and including 1.0.6 are impacted. No information about later releases is available, so it is assumed that 1.0.7 and newer contain the fix. Users should verify the plugin version and apply an update if necessary.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.4 classifies the flaw as moderate to high severity. Although the EPSS score is reported as <1%, suggesting a very low current exploitation likelihood, this does not rule out future attacks. The plugin is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog, indicating no known public exploitation. The attack vector is inferred to be an authenticated subpage edit operation, requiring at least Contributor-level access. The impact is client‑side script execution on any viewer of the infected page.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the List Subpages plugin to the latest released version (>=1.0.7) to remove the underlying sanitization flaw.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, enforce a strict Content Security Policy that blocks inline scripts and limits script sources as a secondary defense.
  • As a temporary workaround, strip or encode all HTML characters from the title field before storing it, or disable the title feature until the plugin can be updated.
