Description
The Custom Logo plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 2.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

AI Analysis

Impact

The Custom Logo plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to stored cross‑site scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the Logo Path setting. Administrators can embed arbitrary scripts that persist in the plugin configuration and are executed whenever a page using the logo is rendered, allowing a malicious user to hijack sessions, deface content, or run client‑side attacks on any visitor.

Affected Systems

WordPress installations running the Custom Logo plugin up to version 2.2, namely multisite deployments that have unfiltered_html disabled. The issue impacts the vendor tgrk’s Custom Logo plugin when these contextual conditions are met.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS base score of 4.4 the flaw is classified as moderate severity. The EPSS indicates an exploitation probability of less than 1%, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires an authenticated attacker with administrator privileges on a multisite WordPress site that has unfiltered_html turned off; once logged in, the attacker can inject JavaScript that will execute for all users viewing any affected page.

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Custom Logo plugin to version 2.3 or later where the vulnerability is removed.
  • If an update is not immediately possible, temporarily deactivate or uninstall the Custom Logo plugin until a patched release is available.
  • After remediation, verify that the unfiltered_html option remains disabled on multisite installations and limit administrator accounts to the minimum required for operations.
