A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was discovered in the Alan Tien Call Now Icon Animate WordPress plugin versions 0.1.0 and below. The vulnerability was identified on May 30, 2023, and affects users with administrative privileges (Patchstack).
The vulnerability occurs because the plugin does not properly validate and escape certain parameters, which could allow users with admin role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (such as in multisite setups). The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 4.8 (Medium) by NIST with a vector string of CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, while Patchstack assigned it a score of 5.9 (Medium) (NVD, WPScan).
The vulnerability could allow malicious actors with administrative access to inject malicious scripts, including redirects, advertisements, and other HTML payloads into the website, which would be executed when guests visit the site (Patchstack).
Currently, there is no official fix available for this vulnerability. Given the low severity impact and the requirement of administrative privileges, the risk is considered minimal (Patchstack).
