What the vulnerability does
The Woodmart theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'multiple_markers' attribute in all versions up to, and including, 8.2.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.
Explanation of Vulnerability in Simple Terms
Woodmart versions up to 8.2.3 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability that allows authenticated users to inject malicious scripts. These scripts execute in the browsers of other site visitors, potentially compromising their sessions or stealing sensitive data. The vulnerability affects the entire site scope due to how the payload is stored and rendered.
What an attacker can do
Inject malicious scripts that execute in other users' browsers and steal their session data or credentials.
Potential impact on your site
Authenticated users can inject persistent malicious code affecting all site visitors, risking account compromise and data theft.
Conditions required to exploit
Attacker must have a user account with low-level privileges (e.g., subscriber or contributor role).
