Description
The MotoPress Hotel Booking plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Stripe Webhook event object 'id' in all versions up to, and including, 6.2.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The premium Stripe webhook listener only verifies the webhook signature when an optional Stripe signing secret has been configured; because that secret is empty by default, a forged webhook is accepted without cryptographic verification, and the attacker-controlled event object 'id' (e.g. a forged 'refund.created' refund id) is written unescaped into the payment log and later echoed unsanitized when an administrator views the payment. An attacker must know a valid Stripe PaymentIntent ID for an existing payment to route the forged webhook to a payment record. Note: The vulnerable webhook handler (webhook-listener.php) is part of the premium Stripe gateway integration and is not present in the lite plugin directory.

AI Analysis

Impact

The MotoPress Hotel Booking plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross‑site scripting flaw that allows attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript into the payment log through the Stripe webhook event object 'id'. The flaw arises from insufficient sanitization of the 'id' field before it is written to the logs and subsequently echoed to administrators, enabling the execution of malicious scripts in the context of any user who views the affected page. An attacker can thus steal credentials, deface content, or perform other browser‑side attacks without needing site authentication.

Affected Systems

All releases of the MotoPress Hotel Booking plugin up to and including version 6.2.4 are affected. The issue resides in the premium Stripe webhook listener component; the lite plugin does not contain the vulnerable code. The flaw is triggered when a forged Stripe webhook with a manipulated 'id' field is processed and logged.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS base score of 7.2 reflects the high impact of an XSS vulnerability coupled with the lack of authentication for exploitation. Exploitation is possible because the webhook listener only verifies the signature when an optional Stripe signing secret has been configured, which is empty by default. An attacker only needs to know a valid Stripe PaymentIntent ID to route a forged webhook to an existing payment record. While the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog and the EPSS score is 0.236%, the requirement of a known PaymentIntent ID does not substantially lower the threat level for environments using Stripe. The immediacy of the attack vector—sending a crafted webhook to the plugin’s endpoint—makes the use of this exploit straightforward for determined adversaries.
