CVE-2026-13114

Motors <= 1.4.112 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content and User Biographical Info

View on CVE.org
Published Jul 11, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.2 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment Content and User Biographical Info in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.112 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Analysis

AI-generated

Technical impact

The vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to store malicious scripts in comment content or user biographical information within the Motors plugin. When affected pages are viewed, the stored payload is rendered and executed by the victim’s browser, leading to theft of credentials, session hijacking, or defacement. This weakness is a classic example of Context‑Sensitive Injection (CWE‑79).

Affected Systems

WordPress sites running the Motors – Car Dealership & Classified Listings plugin version 1.4.112 or any earlier release are affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.2 indicates a high potential impact, while the EPSS score of less than 1% suggests a low likelihood of exploitation at this time. The flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers can exploit it without authentication by submitting crafted content through the comment or user profile forms; they then rely on victims visiting the affected page where the script executes.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Motors plugin to a version later than 1.4.112 where the input sanitization and output escaping have been corrected.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, enforce strict input validation on the comment and user biography fields by disallowing script tags, or require authentication before allowing submissions to those fields.
  • As a short‑term mitigator, hide or remove the biographical info from public pages using CSS or conditional rendering so that any injected content cannot be executed by visitors.
