HighMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Meow Lightbox versions prior to 5.6.5
Description
Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping allow unauthenticated attackers to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting. This occurs via the
post content (bbPress reply body) parameter, enabling the injection of arbitrary web scripts that execute when a user views the affected page. Exploitation requires the administrator to have enabled Output Buffering, the HtmlDomParser engine, and Aggressive Resolve, along with a stored-HTML submission surface, such as bbPress anonymous replies, where the kses allow-list preserves img attributes.Recommendations
Update Meow Lightbox to version 5.6.5 or later.
As a temporary mitigation, restrict the use of the
post content (bbPress reply body) parameter or disable the HtmlDomParser engine and Aggressive Resolve settings. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
