Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Sandor Kovacs Simple Sticky Footer allows Stored XSS. This issue affects Simple Sticky Footer : from n/a through 1.3.5.
AnalysisAI
Stored cross-site scripting in Simple Sticky Footer WordPress plugin up to version 1.3.5 allows authenticated users with high privileges to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages, which execute when other users access the affected page. No public exploit or active exploitation identified; EPSS score is low (0.04%).
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is a stored XSS (CWE-79) in the Simple Sticky Footer plugin for WordPress. The plugin likely stores user-supplied input (e.g., footer content) without proper sanitization, allowing injection of malicious scripts. The CVSS vector indicates high privileges required (PR:H) and user interaction (UI:R), suggesting the attacker must be an admin or similar role, and the victim must click a link or visit a page.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to the latest patched version of Simple Sticky Footer (if available) or remove the plugin. As a workaround, restrict admin access to trusted users only and implement a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to filter XSS payloads. Note that disabling the plugin may remove footer functionality.
