Summary

The Order Tracking Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the order status parameter in versions up to and including 3.3.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers (admin or higher) to inject arbitrary web scripts on pages.

Risk Assessment

Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to inject malicious code, potentially leading to user data theft or account takeover. This affects multi-site installations and those where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update the Order Tracking Pro plugin to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability. Additionally, consider enabling sanitization filters for all input data.

Original NVD description (English source)

The Order Tracking Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the order status parameter in versions up to, and including, 3.3.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers (admin or higher) to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
