Unauthenticated Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in WPDM - Premium Packages <= 7.0.5 versions.
AnalysisAI
Cross-site scripting in WPDM - Premium Packages for WordPress allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript into pages rendered for victim users, exploiting insufficient output sanitization in plugin versions 7.0.5 and earlier. The CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C) confirms low-complexity, network-reachable unauthenticated access with a scope change crossing from the vulnerable plugin into the victim's browser context, enabling session hijacking, credential theft, or unauthorized administrative actions. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the target WordPress site to have WPDM - Premium Packages version 7.0.5 or earlier installed and active. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.1 score captures a meaningful but bounded risk profile: network-reachable, low complexity, and no required privileges are all high-risk signals, but mandatory user interaction (UI:R) is the primary friction point, requiring a victim to actively load attacker-supplied content rather than allowing fully autonomous exploitation. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker identifies a WordPress site running WPDM - Premium Packages 7.0.5 or earlier, crafts a URL embedding a JavaScript payload into a vulnerable plugin parameter, and distributes the link via phishing email to a logged-in site administrator. When the administrator clicks the link and the unsanitized parameter is reflected in the browser response, the attacker's JavaScript executes in the administrator's authenticated session, exfiltrating the session cookie to an attacker-controlled endpoint or silently creating a rogue admin account. |
| Remediation | The primary remediation is to update WPDM - Premium Packages to the version released after 7.0.5; patch availability is confirmed per the Patchstack advisory at https://patchstack.com/database/wordpress/plugin/wpdm-premium-packages/vulnerability/wordpress-wpdm-premium-packages-plugin-7-0-5-cross-site-scripting-xss-vulnerability, though an exact fixed version number was not independently confirmed from the provided intelligence data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours: conduct a complete audit to identify all WordPress instances using WPDM - Premium Packages version 7.0.5 or earlier and immediately disable the plugin if it is not business-critical; for critical deployments, take instances offline from production traffic and deploy Web Application Firewall rules to block requests containing typical XSS payloads directed at plugin endpoints. …
