Description
The Website LLMs.txt plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.6 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 Website LLMs.txt plugin contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw in its admin configuration options. Because input is not properly sanitized and the output is not escaped, an attacker who can authenticate with administrator‑level permissions can inject arbitrary JavaScript into pages that will run whenever other users access those pages. The injected script can steal session cookies, deface content, or redirect users, thereby compromising confidentiality, integrity, and potentially availability of the site’s front end.

Affected Systems

WordPress sites that use the Website LLMs.txt plugin version 8.2.6 or earlier. The vulnerability only applies to multi‑site installations, and to installations where the unfiltered_html capability has been disabled for the administrator role. Users with administrator or higher privileges can trigger the exploit.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 4.4 indicates a medium severity risk, but the EPSS score of less than 1% demonstrates that exploitation is currently unlikely. The flaw is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack requires authenticated access to the plugin’s admin interface, meaning that an attacker must first compromise or be granted administrator credentials. Once an article or page is stored with malicious script, all subsequent visits to that page by any user will execute the script, providing a persistent but localized attack vector.
