Received Received - Intake
Stored XSS in Private WP Suite Plugin Affects Multi-Site Installations

Publication date: 2026-04-22

Last updated on: 2026-04-22

Assigner: Wordfence

Description
The Private WP suite plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'Exceptions' setting in all versions up to, and including, 0.4.1. This is 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.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

The Private WP suite plugin for WordPress has a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the 'Exceptions' setting in all versions up to and including 0.4.1.

This vulnerability arises because the plugin does not properly sanitize input or escape output, allowing authenticated users with Administrator-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts.

These injected scripts execute whenever any user accesses the affected page, but this issue only affects multi-site WordPress installations or installations where the unfiltered_html capability has been disabled.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

An attacker with Administrator-level access can exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious scripts into pages viewed by other users.

This can lead to unauthorized actions being performed on behalf of users, theft of sensitive information such as cookies or credentials, and potential compromise of user accounts.

Since the vulnerability is stored, the malicious script persists and affects all users who visit the injected pages, increasing the scope of impact.
