WordPress vulnerability analysis and mitigation
Overview
The WordPress GDPR plugin for WordPress contains a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability (CVE-2024-10388) discovered in versions up to and including 2.0.2. The vulnerability was identified on November 17, 2024, and affects the 'gdprfirstname' and 'gdprlastname' parameters due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping (NVD, Wordfence).
Technical details
The vulnerability is classified as CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) and has received a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.2 (High) from Wordfence and 6.1 (Medium) from NIST. The attack vector is network-accessible (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L), requires no privileges (PR:N), and can be executed without user interaction according to Wordfence's assessment (NVD).
Impact
When exploited, this vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This can lead to potential data theft, session hijacking, or other malicious actions performed in the context of the affected users (NVD).
Mitigation and workarounds
Users are advised to update their WordPress GDPR plugin to a version newer than 2.0.2 to address this vulnerability (Welaunch).
