The WP Recipe Maker plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'notes' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 10.8.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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 in the WP Recipe Maker plugin for WordPress affects all versions up to and including 10.8.1, allowing an authenticated attacker holding Contributor-level access or above to inject arbitrary JavaScript through the recipe 'notes' parameter, which is neither properly sanitized on input nor escaped on output. The injected script executes in the browser of any user - visitor, editor, or administrator - who subsequently views the affected recipe page, and per the CVSS vector (PR:L, UI:R) the attack requires both a valid low-privilege account and a victim's interaction with the poisoned page. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires an authenticated account with Contributor-level access or above on a WordPress site running WP Recipe Maker version 10.8.1 or earlier; the attacker injects the payload via the recipe 'notes' parameter. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a moderate-severity stored XSS that reads as high-CVSS-relative-to-real-risk rather than an urgent priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade WP Recipe Maker to the first release published after 10.8.1 that incorporates the fix recorded in WordPress.org plugin changeset 3699793 (https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3699793/) - because the input data does not specify a tagged patched version number, confirm the fixed release in the plugin's WordPress.org changelog or the Wordfence advisory (https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/7238a6ba-4ef2-4ae1-ba20-7e0a499c98a9?source=cve) and do not assume 10.8.1 itself is remediated; patch status is best described as an upstream fix available in the plugin repository, with the released patched version not independently confirmed from this data. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
