CVE-2025-12193: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in kitae-park Mang Board WP
The Mang Board WP plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'mp' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.1 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.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The Mang Board WP plugin for WordPress suffers from a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) due to improper neutralization of input in the 'mp' parameter. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of a victim's browser when they click on a crafted link. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 2.3.1 and 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), indicating network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, scope changed, and low impact on confidentiality and integrity. No patch or vendor advisory is currently available to confirm remediation status.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can lead to the execution of arbitrary scripts in the context of the victim's browser, potentially allowing theft of sensitive information or manipulation of web content. The impact is limited to confidentiality and integrity with no impact on availability. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
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 or removing the Mang Board WP plugin or applying custom input sanitization and output escaping for the 'mp' parameter if feasible. Additionally, educating users to avoid clicking on suspicious links can reduce risk.
