Published: Wed Apr 16 2025 (04/16/2025, 01:45:01 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: cozmoslabs
Product: User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor

Description

The User Profile Builder – Beautiful User Registration Forms, User Profiles & User Role Editor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's shortcodes in all versions up to, and including, 3.13.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The issue was partially patched in version 3.13.6 of the plugin, and fully patched in 3.13.7.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-2314 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the User Profile Builder plugin by cozmoslabs for WordPress. It affects all versions up to and including 3.13.5 due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation (CWE-79). Authenticated attackers with contributor or higher privileges can inject arbitrary scripts via plugin shortcodes because of insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. The vulnerability was partially patched in version 3.13.6 and fully patched in 3.13.7.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows an authenticated user with contributor-level access or higher to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the affected website. This can lead to session hijacking, unauthorized actions, or other impacts related to cross-site scripting. The CVSS score of 6.4 (medium severity) reflects the network attack vector, low attack complexity, and limited privileges required.
