CVE-2026-3997
CVSS v3.1
6.4
Medium
| AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N |
The Text Toggle plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'title' shortcode attribute of the [tt part] and [tt] shortcodes in all versions up to and including 1.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied shortcode attributes. Specifically, in the avp texttoggle part shortcode() function, the 'title' attribute is extracted from shortcode attributes and concatenated directly into HTML output without any escaping — both within an HTML attribute context (title="...") on line 116 and in HTML content on line 119. While the 'class' attribute is properly validated using ctype alnum(), the 'title' attribute has no sanitization whatsoever. An attacker can inject double-quote characters to break out of the title attribute and inject arbitrary HTML attributes including event handlers. 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.
