WordPress · Rich Review · CVE-2019-25216
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Rich Review plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.7.4
**Description**
The Rich Review plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the POST body `update` parameter 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 vulnerability has been exploited in the wild, and affected versions are at risk.
**Recommendations**
Update the Rich Review plugin for WordPress to the latest version to mitigate the risk of exploitation.
As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the `update` parameter in the POST body until a patch is available.
Restrict access to the Rich Review plugin to minimize the risk of exploitation.
