Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress user with at least low-level privileges (CVSS PR:L) on a site running the Jannah - Extensions plugin version 1.1.4 or earlier, and additionally requires a victim to interact by viewing the page carrying the DOM-based payload (CVSS UI:R). The description does not name the exact vulnerable parameter, endpoint, or configuration toggle, so the specific feature carrying the injection cannot be stated from available data. The key limiting factors are the combination of required authentication and required victim interaction, plus the partial (Low) impact ceiling, which together make opportunistic mass exploitation unlikely.

Impact

This is a moderate-severity, low-priority issue. The CVSS 3.1 vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L, base 6.5) describes a network-reachable DOM-based XSS that nevertheless requires BOTH authenticated access (PR:L - a low-privileged WordPress account such as contributor/author) AND victim user interaction (UI:R), with only partial (Low) impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. These dual preconditions substantially blunt real-world risk despite the network attack vector. The EPSS score of 0.17% (5th percentile) is very low and consistent with the absence of exploitation signals: the CVE is NOT in CISA KEV and there is no public exploit code identified at time of analysis. No SSVC decision data was provided in the input. All signals align in the same direction - low exploitation probability, no active exploitation, no POC, and meaningful access/interaction prerequisites - so this is a genuine high-CVSS-relative-to-real-risk case that should be patched in routine maintenance rather than treated as an emergency. The only mild amplifier is the Scope:Changed metric, reflecting that injected script executes in a victim's browser context beyond the vulnerable component.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker holding a low-privileged authenticated WordPress account on a site running the Jannah - Extensions plugin (<= 1.1.4) crafts input that is unsafely written into the DOM, planting a malicious script. A higher-privileged user (e.g. an administrator) who then views the attacker-influenced page triggers the script in their browser, enabling session or action abuse within that user's context. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 08, 2026

Jannah Extensions 1.1.4 and earlier for WordPress contains a DOM-based cross-site scripting issue that an authenticated low-privilege user can leverage when a victim views a crafted page carrying the payload. Successful exploitation may execute script in the victim's browser within a changed scope, but the requirement for authentication plus user interaction and only low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact limit the practical risk. EPSS is 0.17% (5th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; consult the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/jannah-extensions/vulnerability/wordpress-jannah-extensions-plugin-1-1-4-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability?_s_id=cve for any updated version beyond 1.1.4. If the plugin is not essential, deactivate and remove it to eliminate the attack surface, accepting loss of the theme extension functionality. If it must remain, restrict low-privilege account creation and review who can submit content that may influence client-side rendering, recognizing that this reduces editorial flexibility. Deploy a Content Security Policy that disallows inline and untrusted script sources to reduce DOM-based XSS execution, but test carefully because strict CSP can break legitimate front-end scripts. Monitor vendor and Patchstack channels for a fixed release and apply it promptly once available.

Affected ProductsAI

The affected product is the Jannah - Extensions plugin for WordPress, versions up to and including 1.1.4 according to the description. No CPE string was provided in the input data. The available vendor reference is the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/Wordpress/Plugin/jannah-extensions/vulnerability/wordpress-jannah-extensions-plugin-1-1-4-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability?_s_id=cve. Sites running the plugin at version 1.1.4 or earlier with authenticated users capable of contributing content or influencing rendered DOM elements should be considered potentially exposed.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This is a CWE-79 improper neutralization of input during web page generation issue, commonly known as cross-site scripting, and specifically assessed as DOM-based XSS in the Jannah - Extensions WordPress plugin. DOM-based XSS occurs when client-side JavaScript reads attacker-influenceable data from the DOM or URL and writes it to an unsafe sink without proper neutralization, causing execution in the victim's browser rather than on the server. The CVSS:3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L indicates a network-reachable flaw requiring authenticated low-level privileges and victim interaction, with changed scope and low impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No CPE string or exact vulnerable parameter was provided, so the precise injection point cannot be confirmed from the available data.
