Paypal Shortcodes
Monthly
This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) flaw in the PayPal Shortcodes WordPress plugin affecting all versions up to and including 0.3. The plugin fails to properly sanitize and escape the 'amount' and 'name' shortcode attributes, allowing authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access or higher to inject malicious JavaScript that executes for all users viewing affected pages. With a CVSS score of 6.4 and network-based attack vector, this represents a moderate-severity threat to WordPress installations using this plugin, particularly those with multiple contributor accounts.
