CVE-2025-60176: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in tattersoftware WP Tesseract
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in tattersoftware WP Tesseract wp-tesseract allows Stored XSS.This issue affects WP Tesseract: from n/a through <= 1.0.2.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in WP Tesseract (<= 1.0.2) involves improper neutralization of input during web page generation, leading to stored cross-site scripting (XSS). An attacker with high privileges and requiring user interaction could inject malicious scripts that execute with limited confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. The CVSS vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, high privileges required, and user interaction needed, with a scope change.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker with high privileges to inject and store malicious scripts that execute when other users view the affected pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts within the application context. There are no reports of active exploitation in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should apply strict input validation and output encoding as a temporary mitigation. Monitor vendor channels for updates regarding patches or official fixes.
