Stored XSS in Review Map by RevuKangaroo Plugin Settings

Publication date: 2026-03-21

Last updated on: 2026-03-21

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Review Map by RevuKangaroo plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin settings in all versions up to, and including, 1.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

Executive Summary

The Review Map by RevuKangaroo plugin for WordPress has a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in all versions up to and including 1.7. This vulnerability arises because the plugin does not properly sanitize input or escape output in its settings. As a result, an authenticated attacker with administrator-level access or higher can inject malicious web scripts into pages. These scripts will execute whenever a user accesses the affected page.

This vulnerability specifically affects multi-site WordPress installations or installations where the unfiltered_html capability has been disabled.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows an attacker with administrator-level access to inject malicious scripts that execute in the context of users visiting the affected pages. This can lead to unauthorized actions such as stealing user credentials, hijacking user sessions, or performing actions on behalf of users without their consent.

Since the vulnerability requires high privileges to exploit, the risk is somewhat limited to environments where such access is possible. However, in multi-site installations or where unfiltered_html is disabled, the impact can be significant due to the potential for widespread script execution.
