The Taskbuilder WordPress plugin before 5.0.8 does not properly sanitise a URL parameter before echoing it into inline JavaScript on a frontend page containing one of its shortcodes, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability that can be triggered against any logged-in user.
AnalysisAI
Reflected cross-site scripting in the Taskbuilder WordPress plugin before 5.0.8 lets an unauthenticated attacker inject arbitrary JavaScript by tricking a logged-in user into visiting a crafted URL. The plugin echoes an unsanitised URL parameter directly into inline JavaScript on any frontend page that renders one of its shortcodes, so the payload executes in the victim's authenticated browser session. Publicly available exploit code exists (WPScan), though EPSS remains low (0.18%) and the flaw is not in CISA KEV.
