Published: Thu Aug 29 2024 (08/29/2024, 05:30:56 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: delower186
Product: WP To Do

Description

The WP To Do plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Comment in all versions up to, and including, 1.3.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2024-3944 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the WP To Do plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to 1.3.0. The vulnerability is due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically in comment handling. Authenticated attackers with administrator privileges can inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of users visiting the affected pages. This issue is limited to multi-site installations or those with unfiltered_html disabled, reducing the attack surface. The CVSS 3.1 vector indicates network attack vector, high attack complexity, high privileges required, no user interaction, and impacts confidentiality and integrity with no availability impact.

Potential Impact

An attacker with administrator-level permissions can inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript in affected WordPress multi-site environments or where unfiltered_html is disabled. This can lead to partial confidentiality and integrity loss, such as stealing session tokens or modifying content. There is no direct impact on availability. The vulnerability does not affect single-site installations or those with unfiltered_html enabled. No known exploits are reported in the wild at this time.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or fix is currently available for this vulnerability. Users should monitor the vendor's announcements for updates. Until a fix is released, restrict administrator access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the WP To Do plugin in multi-site environments or where unfiltered_html is disabled. Review and sanitize comments manually if possible. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance.
