Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
This affects WordPress sites using WP Darko Responsive Pricing Table up to 5.1.6. A contributor-level user or compromised account could store script in plugin-managed content, creating a cross-site scripting risk when another user views the affected content. The available sources rate it medium, not a mass unauthenticated internet takeover.
Executive priority
Treat as a moderate WordPress exposure issue. Prioritize sites with many content contributors, public registration, delegated publishing, or weak account controls. It is less urgent than unauthenticated remote code execution but still relevant for brand, session, and admin-risk reduction.
Technical view
CVE-2022-46855 is an authenticated stored XSS issue in dk-pricr-responsive-pricing-table, mapped to CWE-79. CVSS 3.1 is 6.5 with network access, low complexity, low privileges, required user interaction, changed scope, and low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is most likely on WordPress installations running Responsive Pricing Table version 5.1.6 or earlier, especially where contributor-level access is broadly granted or account compromise is plausible.
Exploitation context
The bundle does not show CISA KEV listing or active exploitation evidence. Exploitation requires authenticated contributor-or-higher access and user interaction, according to the supplied description and CVSS vector.
Researcher notes
The source bundle lacks exact vulnerable field details, exploit maturity, and a named fixed version. Avoid assuming exploit paths beyond authenticated stored XSS. Validation should focus on plugin presence, version, contributor access, and vendor guidance.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory WordPress sites for the Responsive Pricing Table plugin and installed version.
- Check WP Darko, Patchstack, or WordPress plugin guidance for a fixed release or workaround.
- Disable or remove the plugin where no trusted fix is available.
- Restrict contributor-level access to trusted users only.
- Review recent contributor account activity for suspicious content changes.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether dk-pricr-responsive-pricing-table is installed on each WordPress site.
- Compare installed versions against the affected <= 5.1.6 range.
- Check user roles for unnecessary contributor-or-higher access.
- Review plugin-managed pricing table content for unexpected script-like entries.
- Use vulnerability management tooling that maps the plugin slug to CVE-2022-46855.
