CVSS v3.1
6.4
Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
WordPress Simple Shopping Cart plugin versions up to, and including, 5.1.3
Description
The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'wp cart button' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows 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.
Recommendations
For WordPress Simple Shopping Cart plugin versions up to, and including, 5.1.3, update to a version later than 5.1.3 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'wp cart button' shortcode for users with contributor-level access and above until a patch is available.
Fix
