Published: Thu Jan 30 2025 (01/30/2025, 09:21:58 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: vruizg
Product: VR-Frases

Description

The VR-Frases (collect & share quotes) plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via several parameters in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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. CVE-2025-22636 appears to be a duplicate of this issue.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-0860 is a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the VR-Frases plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to 3.0.1. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically insufficient sanitization and escaping of user-supplied parameters.

CVE-2025-22636 is noted as a duplicate of this issue. No patch or vendor advisory is currently available.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users visiting the affected WordPress site, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other client-side impacts. The vulnerability does not affect availability and has low impact on confidentiality and integrity according to the CVSS vector. There are no known active exploits reported.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling the VR-Frases plugin or restricting access to it. Additionally, applying web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block reflected XSS attempts may help mitigate risk. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once available.
