Description
The Tickera – Sell Tickets & Manage Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'price_wrapper' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.0.0 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. Successful execution of the injected script is limited to victims who have the referenced ticket ID present in their cart cookie, meaning the payload only fires for users who have previously added that ticket to their cart.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Tickera plugin contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw in the ‘price_wrapper’ shortcode attribute, allowing an authenticated contributor to insert malicious scripts that are stored in the database. When a user with the referenced ticket ID accesses a page containing the shortcode, the injected script executes in that user's browser, potentially enabling session hijacking, cookie theft, or defacement for those particular users. This vulnerability stems from the failure to sanitize user input and encode output, as captured by CWE‑79.

Affected Systems

The issue affects the Tickera – Sell Tickets & Manage Events WordPress plugin for all releases up to and including 3.6.0.0. Any WordPress site that incorporates these versions of the plugin is susceptible to the vulnerability, impacting event organizers who use Tickera to sell tickets on public‑facing sites.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 6.4 and an EPSS below 1%, the risk is moderate and the exploitation likelihood is low. The attack requires contributor‑level access, meaning an attacker must first gain or possess such permissions. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, and the payload only affects users who have the ticket ID present in their cart cookie, limiting the impact to a subset of visitors.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Tickera plugin to the latest release, which eliminates the stored XSS flaw.
  • If an update is not immediately possible, remove or sanitize the ‘price_wrapper’ attribute wherever it is used, ensuring no unsanitized user input is rendered.
  • Limit contributor and higher roles to only those who truly need shortcode editing privileges, reducing the attack surface for injection attempts.
