Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in WPlugged.com WebHotelier allows Stored XSS. This issue affects WebHotelier: from n/a through 1.9.2.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting in WebHotelier WordPress plugin up to version 1.9.2 allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access to inject malicious scripts into web pages. When an administrator views the injected content, the script executes, potentially leading to session hijacking or defacement. No public exploit or active exploitation has been identified.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw in the WebHotelier plugin for WordPress, which provides hotel booking functionality. The plugin fails to sanitize user-supplied input before storing it in the database and later rendering it in web pages. This allows attackers with low-privileged accounts (e.g., subscribers or contributors) to inject arbitrary JavaScript. The CWE-79 classification indicates improper neutralization of input during web page generation. The affected product is identified via CPE as a WordPress plugin, and the vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 1.9.2.
RemediationAI
Update the WebHotelier plugin to version 1.9.3 or later, which contains the fix. The vendor advisory is available at the Patchstack link. As a workaround, restrict user registration to trusted users only and implement a Web Application Firewall (WAF) with XSS filtering rules. Note that disabling user-submitted content may break booking functionality.
