WordPress Plugin XSS Vulnerabilities
2026-03-25
A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the WP Review Slider plugin (also known as wp-facebook-reviews) versions 13.9 and earlier, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts that persist in the application and execute in users' browsers. This vulnerability affects WordPress site administrators and users who interact with review content. An attacker can exploit this to steal session tokens, deface content, redirect users to malicious sites, or perform actions on behalf of compromised users.
A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Theme-one's The Grid WordPress plugin versions prior to 2.8.0, allowing attackers to inject and persist malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of other users viewing affected pages. An authenticated or unauthenticated attacker can exploit improper input neutralization during web page generation to inject arbitrary JavaScript code. While no CVSS score, EPSS probability, or KEV status has been assigned, the vulnerability is confirmed by Patchstack and carries significant risk given the stored nature of the XSS and the plugin's widespread WordPress ecosystem adoption.
A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Metagauss ProfileGrid WordPress plugin through version 5.9.8.1, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts that persist in the database and execute in the browsers of other users. The vulnerability affects all versions of ProfileGrid up to and including 5.9.8.1, enabling attackers with appropriate access to compromise user sessions, steal credentials, or perform actions on behalf of victims. While no CVSS score or EPSS data is currently available, the Stored XSS classification (CWE-79) combined with active reporting from security researchers indicates this is a legitimate and actionable threat.
A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the CodePeople CP Multi View Event Calendar WordPress plugin through version 1.4.35, allowing authenticated or unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious JavaScript that persists in the database and executes in the browsers of site visitors. This CWE-79 vulnerability enables attackers to steal session cookies, redirect users to malicious sites, or perform actions on behalf of administrators. While no CVSS score or EPSS data are currently published and the vulnerability has not been designated as actively exploited in CISA's KEV catalog, the nature of stored XSS combined with the plugin's event calendar functionality-which typically accepts user input for event creation and editing-indicates a credible attack surface.
A DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Northern Beaches Websites WP Custom Admin Interface WordPress plugin through version 7.42, allowing attackers to inject and execute arbitrary JavaScript code in users' browsers. This vulnerability affects all installations of the plugin up to and including version 7.42, enabling attackers to steal session cookies, perform unauthorized actions on behalf of authenticated administrators, or redirect users to malicious sites. While no CVSS score or EPSS probability has been published, the DOM-based XSS classification (CWE-79) combined with the plugin's administrative scope indicates a high-severity risk requiring immediate patching.
