Description
The Product Filter Widget for Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via 'args[filterFormArray]' Parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.6 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 a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The endpoint is registered via wp_ajax_nopriv_ with no nonce verification or capability check, and exploitation is delivered via a CSRF-style form auto-submission to the admin-ajax.php endpoint, requiring the attacker to trick a victim into visiting an attacker-controlled page.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Product Filter Widget for Elementor plugin contains a reflected cross‑site scripting flaw in the 'args[filterFormArray]' parameter. Because the value is never sanitized or properly escaped before being sent to the browser, an unauthenticated attacker can insert arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the victim’s context when the payload is displayed. This allows session hijacking, defacement, or phishing attacks against users who follow a crafted link, making the vulnerability a classic XSS vector.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Product Filter Widget for Elementor plugin by brthumar1959, versions up to and including 1.0.6 inclusive, are affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.1 indicates moderate severity. EPSS is not available, but the flaw can be exploited remotely via a CSRF‑style HTTP request to admin-ajax.php without authentication. The lack of nonce verification means an attacker only needs to trick a user into visiting an attacker‑controlled page that auto‑submits the malicious payload. Because the vulnerability does not require any administrative privileges, it can be used by any external actor against any vulnerable site. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the plugin to a fixed release (1.0.7 or newer) that removes the XSS vector.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, remove or block the wp_ajax_nopriv_ action for the vulnerable endpoint, for example by adding a filter that removes the action hook or by disabling the plugin temporarily.
  • Deploy a web‑application firewall rule or .htaccess restriction that blocks requests to admin-ajax.php carrying the 'args[filterFormArray]' parameter until the plugin is upgraded.
