AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an Administrator Cross Site Scripting (XSS) flaw in the Supsystic Photo Gallery by Supsystic plugin versions 1.16.3 and earlier. Attackers can inject arbitrary script code that executes within the browser of any administrator who views the compromised gallery entries. This can result in session hijacking, credential theft, or defacement of the site.

Affected Systems

All WordPress installations that use the Supsystic Photo Gallery by Supsystic plugin version 1.16.3 or lower are affected. The plugin is distributed under the Supsystic brand and is compatible with any WordPress site that supports third‑party plugins.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 5.9 classifies the vulnerability as moderate severity. The EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a very low likelihood of exploitation in the field, and it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Nonetheless, because XSS can compromise administrative sessions, it should be addressed promptly. The attack vector is likely through the plugin’s administrative interface; an authenticated administrator could create or edit gallery items containing malicious payloads that are rendered unsanitized.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update the Supsystic Photo Gallery plugin to the latest version (≥1.16.4).

  • As a temporary measure, enforce a strict Content Security Policy that restricts script execution on administrative pages to mitigate the impact of any remaining unsanitized input.
