Description
The RSS Aggregator by Feedzy – Feed to Post, Autoblogging, News & YouTube Video Feeds Aggregator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Feedzy Loop Block Feed URL / RSS <title> in all versions up to, and including, 5.2.10 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. The payload is not neutralized at save time because post_content stores only a benign block reference to an external feed URL; the malicious HTML is injected at render time from the attacker-controlled RSS feed title, bypassing any save-time wp_kses filtering.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Feedzy RSS Aggregator plugin allows authenticated users with contributor privileges to inject malicious scripts into the RSS <title> field of external feeds. Because the plugin stores a block reference but does not sanitize or escape this field when rendering the page, the injected code executes in the browsers of any visitor to the infected page, enabling theft of session cookies, credential phishing, or defacement. The vulnerability is a classic stored XSS flaw (CWE‑79).

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Feedzy RSS Feeds plugin version 5.2.10 or earlier, developed by ThemeIsle under the product name RSS Aggregator by Feedzy – Feed to Post, Autoblogging, News & YouTube Video Feeds Aggregator.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.4 indicates a moderate severity. EPSS information is unavailable, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Exfiltration of data or defacement requires that the attacker controls a feed source and has contributor‑level access. Once the malicious feed is rendered, any site visitor’s browser will execute the payload. The attack vector is therefore authenticated and relies on user role, but the impact spans all site users who view the affected block.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Feedzy RSS Feeds to version 5.2.11 or later.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, revoke contributor permissions for users who can edit or add feeds, or replace the Feedzy loop block with a sanitized alternative.
  • In the interim, limit the plugin to use only feeds from trusted sources and inspect their RSS titles for suspicious content.
