The MxChat - AI Chatbot & Content Generation for WordPress plugin is vulnerable to stored DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) in versions up to and including 3.2.25. The flaw exists due to insufficient sanitization and output escaping of the 'feedback' parameter. An unauthenticated attacker can submit a malicious script via a POST request to the plugin's endpoint, which is then stored and executed when an administrator views the plugin's Transcripts page.
Attack Chain
- Attacker crafts a malicious payload containing arbitrary JavaScript.
- Attacker sends an unauthenticated HTTP POST request to the 'admin-ajax.php' endpoint.
- The plugin accepts and stores the payload within the 'feedback' parameter.
- An administrator navigates to the Transcripts page within the WordPress dashboard.
- The plugin renders the stored payload in the administrator's browser.
- Malicious script executes in the context of the administrator's session.
Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts in the browser session of a logged-in administrator, potentially leading to unauthorized administrative actions, session hijacking, or site-wide configuration changes.
Recommendation
- Upgrade the MxChat - AI Chatbot & Content Generation for WordPress plugin to a version beyond 3.2.25 immediately.
- If an update is unavailable, disable the plugin until a patch is applied.
- Audit the 'Transcripts' page for unexpected or suspicious content, such as script tags or unconventional data within the feedback logs.
Immediate actions
Upgrade MxChat - AI Chatbot & Content Generation for WordPress to the latest version.
Threat Hunt
Hunt for anomalous POST requests to /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php followed by administrative access to the plugin Transcripts page.
Data: Web server access logs, Application audit logs
Mitigations
