CVE-2025-1454: 
WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation

The Ninja Pages WordPress plugin through version 1.4.2 contains a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability identified as CVE-2025-1454. The vulnerability was discovered by Manas Talekar and publicly disclosed on January 8, 2025. This security issue affects the plugin's settings functionality where certain configuration options are not properly sanitized and escaped (WPScan).

The vulnerability stems from improper sanitization and escaping of settings within the Ninja Pages WordPress plugin, specifically affecting the Page Display Options in the plugin's settings. The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.4 (Medium) with the vector string CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, indicating network accessibility with low attack complexity and requiring user interaction (NVD, Wiz).

The vulnerability allows high-privilege users such as administrators to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even in environments where the unfiltered_html capability is explicitly disallowed, such as in multisite WordPress setups. This could potentially lead to client-side code execution in the context of other users' browsers (WPScan).

Currently, there is no known fix available for this vulnerability in the Ninja Pages WordPress plugin (WPScan).
