AI-suggested
Users should review and avoid configuring public Greenshift Element image blocks with src attributes containing {{GET:}} placeholders. Site administrators should monitor for updates from the vendor and apply any future patches promptly. Until a fix is available, restricting the use of dynamic GET placeholders in image blocks and educating users about phishing links may reduce risk.
Description
The Greenshift – animation and page builder blocks plugin for WordPress (versions up to and including 13.2.2) contains a vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to extract authenticated users' HttpOnly WordPress session cookies. This occurs via a crafted GET parameter that injects a nested {{COOKIE:}} placeholder, causing the victim's browser to send cookie values to an attacker-controlled host. Exploitation requires a specific site configuration and user interaction, which are not default states of the plugin.
