CVE-2025-1794: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in johanaarstein AM LottiePlayer
The AM LottiePlayer plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via uploaded SVG files in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-1794 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in the AM LottiePlayer plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 3.6.0. The issue allows authenticated users with Author-level privileges or above to upload SVG files containing malicious scripts. Due to inadequate sanitization and escaping of these SVG files, the injected scripts execute in the context of any user who accesses the compromised page, potentially leading to information disclosure or session hijacking. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.4 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, and user interaction.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Author-level access can inject persistent malicious scripts via SVG uploads, which execute in the browsers of users viewing the infected pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts such as theft of user session data or manipulation of page content. There is no direct availability impact. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — no official fix or patch links are currently available. Users should monitor the vendor's advisory for updates. Until a patch is released, restrict Author-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling SVG uploads if possible to reduce exposure.
