Executive Summary

The WP Recipe Maker Premium plugin for WordPress has a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in versions up to 10.5.0. This flaw exists in the plugin's 'wprm-call-to-action' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. Attackers with contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts into pages.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, inspect WordPress sites using the WP Recipe Maker Premium plugin versions up to 10.5.0 for malicious scripts injected via the 'wprm-call-to-action' shortcode. Check for unusual JavaScript in pages or posts, especially those edited by contributors or higher-level users.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could inject malicious scripts into pages on your WordPress site. When users access these pages, the scripts execute, potentially stealing cookies, session tokens, or other sensitive data. This could lead to unauthorized actions on behalf of users or defacement of your site.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to user data, violating GDPR's data protection principles or HIPAA's security requirements. If exploited, it may result in data breaches, leading to legal penalties, reputational damage, and loss of trust.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the WP Recipe Maker Premium plugin to the latest version beyond 10.5.0. Remove any suspicious scripts from posts or pages. Restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only.
