Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in wptobe Wptobe-signinup wptobe-signinup allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects Wptobe-signinup: from n/a through <= 1.1.2.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-30611 is a reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability identified in the wptobe-signinup plugin, a component of the wptobe project, affecting all versions up to 1.1.2. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of user-supplied input during web page generation, which allows attackers to inject malicious JavaScript code into HTTP responses. When a victim accesses a crafted URL containing malicious payloads, the injected script executes within their browser context, potentially compromising session cookies, redirecting users to malicious sites, or performing actions on behalf of the user. Reflected XSS typically requires the victim to click on a malicious link or visit a specially crafted URL, which can be distributed via phishing emails or social engineering. No patches or fixes are currently linked, and no known exploits have been reported in the wild, indicating this is a newly disclosed vulnerability. The lack of a CVSS score necessitates an independent severity assessment. The vulnerability affects the wptobe-signinup plugin, which is used to manage sign-in and sign-up functionalities, making it a critical component for user authentication workflows in websites using this plugin. The vulnerability's exploitation could undermine user trust and site integrity, especially on sites handling sensitive user data. The vulnerability was reserved on March 24, 2025, and published on April 3, 2025, by Patchstack, indicating recent discovery and disclosure.
Potential Impact
The primary impact of CVE-2025-30611 is the compromise of user confidentiality and integrity through the execution of arbitrary scripts in the victim's browser. Attackers can steal session tokens, credentials, or other sensitive information accessible via the browser context. This can lead to account takeover, unauthorized actions on behalf of users, and potential spread of malware or phishing attacks. For organizations, this can result in reputational damage, loss of customer trust, and potential regulatory penalties if user data is compromised. The availability impact is generally low for reflected XSS but could be leveraged in multi-stage attacks to disrupt services indirectly. Since the vulnerability affects a sign-in/sign-up plugin, the risk is elevated as it directly relates to authentication processes. The ease of exploitation without authentication and the widespread use of WordPress plugins globally increase the threat's potential reach. Organizations relying on wptobe-signinup for user management are at particular risk, especially if they have not implemented additional input validation or Content Security Policies (CSP).
Mitigation Recommendations
To mitigate CVE-2025-30611, organizations should first check for updates or patches from the wptobe project and apply them promptly once available. In the absence of an official patch, implement strict input validation and output encoding on all user-supplied data within the wptobe-signinup plugin, especially in parameters reflected in web pages. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts and reduce the impact of XSS attacks. Additionally, use HTTP-only and Secure flags on cookies to protect session tokens from theft via script access. Educate users about the risks of clicking unknown links and implement web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block common XSS payloads targeting the affected plugin. Regularly audit and test web applications for XSS vulnerabilities using automated scanners and manual penetration testing. Finally, consider disabling or replacing the wptobe-signinup plugin if it cannot be secured timely, especially on high-risk or sensitive websites.
