CVE-2025-12135: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in iqonicdesign WPBookit
The WPBookit plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'css_code' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.6 due to a missing capability check on the save_custome_code() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-12135 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the WPBookit plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.0.6. The issue arises from a missing capability check in the save_custome_code() function, which processes the 'css_code' parameter. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of users visiting the injected pages. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-79 and has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N), indicating network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, scope changed, and low impact on confidentiality and integrity with no impact on availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users visiting affected pages, potentially leading to session hijacking, defacement, or other malicious actions impacting confidentiality and integrity. There is no impact on availability. The vulnerability affects all users of the WPBookit plugin up to version 1.0.6. No known exploits have been reported in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict access to the plugin's functionality where possible and monitor for suspicious activity related to script injection. Avoid using affected versions of WPBookit or consider disabling the plugin temporarily if feasible.
