CVE-2024-10184: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in streamweasels StreamWeasels Kick Integration
The StreamWeasels Kick Integration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's sw-kick-embed shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-10184 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the StreamWeasels Kick Integration WordPress plugin (up to version 1.1.1). The flaw arises from improper neutralization of user-supplied input in the sw-kick-embed shortcode, allowing authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary scripts. These scripts execute in the context of any user viewing the compromised page, potentially leading to information disclosure or session hijacking. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.4 (medium), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, privileges required, no user interaction, and impact on confidentiality and integrity but not availability.
Potential Impact
An attacker with contributor-level or higher privileges can inject persistent malicious scripts into pages via the vulnerable shortcode. This can lead to unauthorized script execution in the browsers of users viewing those pages, potentially resulting in data theft, session hijacking, or other client-side attacks. The vulnerability does not affect availability and requires authenticated access, limiting the attack scope.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the StreamWeasels Kick Integration plugin if possible. Monitor for plugin updates that address this vulnerability.
