CVE-2025-3435: 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 Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the board_header and board_footer parameters in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-3435 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) in the Mang Board WP WordPress plugin. The issue exists in all versions up to and including 1.8.6 due to improper neutralization of input in the board_header and board_footer parameters. An attacker with administrator privileges can inject malicious scripts that persist and execute in the context of users visiting the injected pages. This vulnerability specifically impacts multi-site WordPress installations or those with unfiltered_html disabled, increasing the risk of script injection and potential session hijacking or other script-based attacks.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows an authenticated administrator to inject persistent malicious scripts into pages, which execute in the browsers of users who visit those pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts, such as theft of user credentials or session tokens, or manipulation of page content. The CVSS score of 4.4 reflects a medium severity with network attack vector, high attack complexity, and required privileges. There is no indication of availability impact or known active exploitation in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is currently documented for this vulnerability. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict administrator access to trusted users only and consider disabling or limiting use of the affected parameters (board_header and board_footer) in multi-site or unfiltered_html-disabled environments. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply any official patches promptly once released.
