Short explanation
An unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability has been identified in the Groundhogg — CRM, Newsletters, and Marketing Automation plugin for WordPress. Versions up to and including 4.5.14 are affected due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping via the 'ref' parameter, allowing unauthorized attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts.
This unauthenticated flaw allows attackers to inject malicious web scripts into pages. The patch status cannot be reliably concluded from the examined official sources.
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories as patch status remains unconfirmed
- Monitor plugin updates regularly
