CVE-2025-12651
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
The Live Photos on WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'video_src', 'img_src', and 'class' parameters in the livephotos_photo shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 0.1. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute when a user accesses an injected page.

"value": "El plugin Live Photos on WordPress para WordPress es vulnerable a cross-site scripting almacenado a través de los parámetros 'video_src', 'img_src' y 'class' en el shortcode livephotos_photo en todas las versiones hasta la 0.1, inclusive. Esto se debe a una sanitización de entrada insuficiente y un escape de salida en los atributos proporcionados por el usuario. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con acceso de nivel de colaborador y superior, inyecten scripts web arbitrarios en páginas que se ejecutarán cuando un usuario acceda a una página inyectada."
