CVE-2026-4161: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in revukangaroo Review Map by RevuKangaroo
The Review Map by RevuKangaroo plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin settings in all versions up to, and including, 1.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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 an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-4161 is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the Review Map by RevuKangaroo WordPress plugin (up to version 1.7). The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, allowing authenticated administrators to inject arbitrary scripts via plugin settings. This affects multi-site WordPress setups or installations where unfiltered_html is disabled, enabling persistent script execution when users visit injected pages. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 4.4 (medium severity), with attack vector network, high attack complexity, high privileges required, no user interaction, scope changed, and low confidentiality and integrity impact.
Potential Impact
An attacker with administrator-level access can exploit this vulnerability to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of affected WordPress pages. This can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts such as session hijacking or unauthorized actions performed on behalf of other users. The vulnerability does not affect availability. It is limited to multi-site installations or those with unfiltered_html disabled, reducing the overall attack surface.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix is currently documented for this vulnerability. Users should monitor the vendor's advisories for updates. Until a fix is available, restrict administrator access to trusted personnel only and consider disabling or removing the Review Map by RevuKangaroo plugin in multi-site or unfiltered_html-disabled environments to reduce risk.
