MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
The Echo Knowledge Base – Documentation, FAQs, Chat & Smart Search plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'new kb config' parameter (specifically the article-mobile-break-point-v2 key, among other config keys interpolated into the element) in versions up to, and including, 17.214.0 This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in EPKB Frontend Editor::fe preview config() and EPKB Articles Setup: on every knowledge base article page view, when the request supplies epkb fe reload mode=on, an attacker-controlled JSON blob is merged over the stored KB configuration and several values are concatenated directly into a stylesheet emitted inside a literal <style> element without escaping (minify css() does not strip <, > or /). This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user (with Editor-level access or above, holding the manage categories capability, or an Administrator) into performing an action such as clicking on a specially crafted link.
