CVE-2025-12184: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in rboatright MeetingList
The MeetingList plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 0.11 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-12184 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the MeetingList plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 0.11. The vulnerability arises from insufficient sanitization and escaping of input in the plugin's admin settings, allowing authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary scripts. This vulnerability manifests only in multi-site WordPress setups or installations with unfiltered_html disabled, enabling script execution in pages viewed by users. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.4, reflecting a medium severity with network attack vector, high attack complexity, and requiring high privileges without user interaction.
Potential Impact
An attacker with administrator-level access can inject malicious scripts into pages generated by the MeetingList plugin, which will execute in the context of users viewing those pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts, such as session hijacking or unauthorized actions performed on behalf of users. The vulnerability does not affect availability and requires high privileges and specific WordPress configurations (multi-site or unfiltered_html disabled) to be exploitable.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict administrator access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the MeetingList plugin in multi-site environments or where unfiltered_html is disabled. Monitor for updates from the plugin vendor or WordPress security advisories to apply any forthcoming patches promptly.
