Vendor/Project: streamweasels
Product: StreamWeasels Kick Integration

Description

The StreamWeasels Kick Integration plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘vodsChannel’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2025-9442 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the StreamWeasels Kick Integration WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to 1.1.5. The vulnerability is due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically insufficient sanitization and escaping of the 'vodsChannel' parameter. Authenticated attackers with Contributor-level privileges or higher can exploit this to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of users viewing the injected pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts but no availability impact. The CVSS 3.1 vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, no user interaction, scope change, and low confidentiality and integrity impacts.

Potential Impact

Exploitation allows authenticated users with Contributor or higher privileges to inject and execute arbitrary scripts in the context of other users viewing affected pages. This can lead to theft of user credentials, session tokens, or other sensitive information accessible via the browser, as well as potential manipulation of page content. There is no direct impact on system availability. The vulnerability affects confidentiality and integrity to a limited extent.

Mitigation Recommendations

No official patch or fix is currently documented in the provided data. Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict Contributor-level access to trusted users only and consider disabling or removing the StreamWeasels Kick Integration plugin if feasible. Monitor for updates from the vendor regarding patches or official mitigations.
