WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

The BMLT Tabbed Map plugin for WordPress contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability (CVE-2024-11866) in versions up to and including 1.1.8. The vulnerability exists in the plugin's 'bmlttabbedmap' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes (NVD).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as a Cross-Site Scripting (CWE-79) issue with a CVSS v3.1 Base Score of 6.4 (Medium) and vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, specifically in the handling of user-supplied attributes in the 'bmlttabbedmap' shortcode (NVD).

Impact

When exploited, this vulnerability allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages. These malicious scripts will execute whenever a user accesses the compromised page (NVD).

Mitigation and workarounds

Users should update to a version newer than 1.1.8 if available. Until an update is possible, it is recommended to restrict access to the plugin's shortcode functionality to trusted users only (NVD).
