Description
The Dealia – Request a Quote plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Gutenberg block attributes in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.8. This is due to the use of `wp_kses()` for output escaping within HTML attribute contexts where `esc_attr()` is required. 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 vulnerability arises from the Dealia – Request a Quote WordPress plugin improperly escaping user‑supplied data in Gutenberg block attributes. The code uses wp_kses when an attribute context requires esc_attr, allowing malicious scripts to be embedded and stored in the page content. An authenticated user with Contributor level or higher can inject these scripts, which execute in the browsers of any visitor to the affected page, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other client‑side attacks.

Affected Systems

All versions of the Dealia – Request a Quote plugin up to and including 1.0.8 are affected. The vulnerability requires a user with at least Contributor privileges on a WordPress site that hosts the plugin. No specific operating system or server configuration is mentioned.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 6.4, the vulnerability is considered moderate risk. The EPSS score is below 1 %, indicating a low likelihood of exploitation under current conditions, and it is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The attack vector is web‑based and relies on authenticated access, meaning it only affects sites where an attacker has gained Contributor or higher permissions. The stored nature of the flaw means the malicious script remains in the content until removed or the plugin is fixed, allowing repeated exploitation of any user who loads the affected page.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Dealia plugin to a version that properly sanitizes block attributes, or apply the vendor patch if provided.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, restrict Contributor role permissions on the site or remove the Contributor capability from users who do not require direct content editing, thereby limiting the scope of the attacker.
  • As a developer, audit Gutenberg block templates to ensure that any attribute output uses esc_attr instead of wp_kses, or apply a custom filter to correct the escaping for existing content.
