CVE-2026-1043: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in gagan0123 PostmarkApp Email Integrator
The PostmarkApp Email Integrator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin settings in versions up to, and including, 2.4. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the pma_api_key and pma_sender_address parameters. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the settings page.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The PostmarkApp Email Integrator plugin for WordPress suffers from a stored XSS vulnerability due to improper neutralization of input during web page generation (CWE-79). Specifically, the pma_api_key and pma_sender_address parameters in the plugin settings lack sufficient sanitization and escaping, allowing authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary scripts. These scripts execute in the context of users visiting the settings page, potentially leading to session hijacking or other script-based attacks. The vulnerability affects versions up to and including 2.4. No known exploits are reported in the wild, and no patch information is provided.
Potential Impact
An attacker with Administrator-level access can inject malicious scripts into the plugin settings, which execute when users access the settings page. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts such as theft of session tokens or manipulation of the settings page content. There is no reported impact on availability. The vulnerability requires high privileges and no user interaction beyond visiting the settings page.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict Administrator-level access to trusted users only and consider limiting access to the plugin settings page. Monitor official channels for updates or patches from the vendor.
