Summary

The Easy Waveform Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the shortcode_easywaveformplayer() function in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can inject malicious scripts that execute in visitors' browsers, potentially leading to session theft, admin account takeover, or malware distribution.

Recommendation

Update the plugin to the latest patched version. Additionally, restrict Contributor and above roles to trusted users only.
