DescriptionCVE.org

The Auto Bulb Finder for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'abf_vehicle' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

AnalysisAI

Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in the Auto Bulb Finder for WordPress plugin up to version 2.8.0 allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts via the 'abf_vehicle' shortcode. When a victim views the compromised page, the injected script executes, potentially leading to session hijacking or defacement. No public exploit has been identified, and the EPSS score is low (0.03%), indicating limited exploitation activity at the time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in the WordPress shortcode 'abf_vehicle', which processes user-supplied attributes without adequate input sanitization or output escaping. This is a classic Stored XSS (CWE-79) where attacker-controlled input is stored in the database and later rendered unsanitized in the browser. The plugin is designed for automotive parts compatibility; the shortcode is likely used on product pages or vehicle-specific content. The CPE for the plugin is not explicitly listed, but the affected product is the 'Auto Bulb Finder for WordPress' from the wordpress.org plugin repository.

RemediationAI

Upgrade the Auto Bulb Finder for WordPress plugin to the patched version. The vendor has provided a fix via a Trac changeset; the latest stable release should be installed. As a workaround, limit contributor-level access to trusted users only, since the attack requires that privilege level. Additionally, a Web Application Firewall (WAF) with XSS filtering rules may provide partial protection but does not address the root cause. If upgrade is not immediately possible, disable the 'abf_vehicle' shortcode by removing or commenting out its registration in the plugin's code, though this may break functionality.
