This is due to the `wp_ajax_nopriv_lp_update_mds` action being registered without nonce verification or capability checks, combined with insufficient input sanitization and output escaping when the series name is rendered in the admin settings page. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page."}], "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary", "cvssData": {"version": "3.1", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N", "baseScore": 7.2, "baseSeverity": "HIGH", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "attackComplexity": "LOW", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "userInteraction": "NONE", "scope": "CHANGED", "confidentialityImpact": "LOW", "integrityImpact": "LOW", "availabilityImpact": "NONE"}, "exploitabilityScore": 3.9, "impactScore": 2.7}]}, "weaknesses": [{"source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary", "description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "CWE-79"}]}], "references": [{"url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/lifepress/tags/2.2.2/includes/admin/class-admin-ajax.php#L110", "source": "[email protected]"}, {"url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/lifepress/tags/2.2.2/includes/admin/class-admin-ajax.php#L25", "source": "[email protected]"}, {"url": "https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/lifepress/tags/2.2.2/includes/class-metrics.php#L355", "source": "[email protected]"}, {"url": "https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/4fa5b8a9-1683-4806-987d-527834f45d34?source=cve", "source": "[email protected]"}]}}
