CVE-2025-3100: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in wedevs Project Manager – AI Powered Project Management, Task Management, Kanban Board & Time Tracker
The WP Project Manager – Task, team, and project management plugin featuring kanban board and gantt charts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.22 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in tasks discussion. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, and permissions granted by an Administrator, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The WP Project Manager plugin for WordPress suffers from a stored XSS vulnerability (CWE-79) due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation. Specifically, SVG file uploads in task discussions are not properly sanitized or escaped, enabling authenticated users with at least Subscriber-level access and appropriate permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts. These scripts execute in the context of users viewing the SVG files, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 2.6.22 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N).
Potential Impact
An attacker with Subscriber-level access or higher and permissions granted by an Administrator can inject malicious scripts via SVG file uploads in task discussions. These scripts execute in the browsers of users who view the SVG files, potentially compromising confidentiality and integrity of user sessions or data. The vulnerability does not impact 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, restrict SVG file uploads to trusted users only and consider disabling SVG uploads if possible. Administrators should review user permissions to limit who can upload files and monitor for suspicious activity related to SVG files in task discussions.
