CVE-2025-58684: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in Themepoints Logo Showcase
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Themepoints Logo Showcase allows Stored XSS. This issue affects Logo Showcase: from n/a through 3.0.9.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-58684 is a stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability classified under CWE-79, affecting the Themepoints Logo Showcase plugin up to version 3.0.9. Stored XSS occurs when malicious input is improperly sanitized and then persistently stored by the application, later rendered in web pages without adequate neutralization. This vulnerability allows an attacker with at least low privileges (PR:L) and requiring user interaction (UI:R) to inject malicious scripts into the Logo Showcase plugin's web pages. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.5, indicating medium severity, with an attack vector of network (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), and scope change (S:C). Successful exploitation can lead to partial compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected web application and potentially the users interacting with it. The attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of the victim's browser, enabling session hijacking, defacement, or redirection to malicious sites. The vulnerability affects all versions up to 3.0.9, with no patch currently available as per the provided data. No known exploits have been reported in the wild yet. The vulnerability requires the attacker to have some level of authenticated access (PR:L), which may limit exposure but still poses a significant risk especially in environments where multiple users have access to the plugin's input interfaces.
Potential Impact
For European organizations using the Themepoints Logo Showcase plugin, this vulnerability presents a tangible risk of client-side attacks that can compromise user sessions, steal sensitive information, or spread malware. Since the vulnerability allows scope change, it can affect not only the plugin but potentially other parts of the web application or network if chained with other vulnerabilities. Organizations in sectors such as e-commerce, government, education, and media that rely on WordPress plugins like Logo Showcase for branding or portfolio display are particularly at risk. The exploitation could lead to reputational damage, regulatory non-compliance (e.g., GDPR breaches due to data leakage), and financial losses. The requirement for low privilege authentication reduces the attack surface but does not eliminate risk, especially in environments with multiple contributors or editors. The lack of a patch increases the urgency for mitigation. Additionally, stored XSS vulnerabilities can be leveraged for persistent attacks, affecting multiple users over time, which is critical for organizations with high web traffic from European users.
Mitigation Recommendations
1. Immediate mitigation should include restricting access to the Logo Showcase plugin input interfaces to trusted users only, minimizing the number of users with editing privileges. 2. Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block typical XSS payloads targeting the affected plugin endpoints. 3. Employ Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to restrict the execution of unauthorized scripts in browsers, reducing the impact of potential XSS exploitation. 4. Regularly audit and sanitize all user-generated content before it is stored or rendered, applying strict input validation and output encoding specifically for the Logo Showcase plugin inputs. 5. Monitor logs and user activity for suspicious behavior indicative of attempted exploitation. 6. Stay updated with Themepoints vendor announcements for patches or updates and apply them promptly once available. 7. Consider temporarily disabling or replacing the Logo Showcase plugin with a more secure alternative until a patch is released. 8. Educate users with editing privileges about the risks of injecting untrusted content and enforce strong authentication mechanisms to reduce the risk of compromised accounts.
