Description
The Logo Slider – Logo Carousel, Client Logo Slider & Brand Showcase for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'lgx_tooltip_position' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.5 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 Logo Slider WP plugin records the "lgx_tooltip_position" field without proper sanitization or escaping, enabling an attacker who holds contributor‑level or higher WordPress permissions to embed arbitrary JavaScript code. When a page that displays plugin content is requested, the injected script executes in the victim's browser context, potentially allowing the attacker to manipulate the page or run additional code.

Affected Systems

Any WordPress installation that uses the Logichunt Logo Slider WP – Responsive Logo Carousel, Logo Gallery & Logo Showcase plugin version 5.5 or earlier is affected. The flaw exists in all releases up to and including 5.5 regardless of theme or other plugins.

Risk and Exploitability

The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 6.4, classifying it as moderate severity, while an EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a low likelihood of exploitation in the wild. The flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, implying no known large‑scale exploitation. Because only contributor‑level access is required, many users may possess the necessary permissions, raising the practical risk for sites with moderate to high traffic.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Logo Slider WP plugin to a version later than 5.5 that addresses the missing sanitization.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, revoke contributor‑level access to the plugin’s settings or disable the "lgx_tooltip_position" option to prevent further storage of unsanitized input.
  • Deploy a site‑wide Content Security Policy that restricts @import and script execution to trusted sources, reducing the effect of any residual XSS payload.
