CVE-2024-11287: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in motovnet Ebook Store
The Ebook Store plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of add_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 5.8001. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The motovnet Ebook Store WordPress plugin versions up to 5.8001 suffer from a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) due to the use of add_query_arg without proper escaping of URL parameters. This flaw enables unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages, which execute when a user is tricked into clicking a malicious link. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction needed, scope changed, and low impact on confidentiality and integrity, with no impact on availability. No patch or vendor advisory is currently available.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of the affected website for users who click on crafted links. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts, such as theft of user session data or manipulation of displayed content. There is no impact on system availability. The vulnerability requires user interaction and does not require authentication.
Mitigation Recommendations
