Zenost Shortcodes <= 1.0 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Shortcode Attributes

Published Dec 12, 2025 · Updated Apr 8, 2026 · Assigned by Wordfence

Description

The Zenost Shortcodes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'link' and 'target' parameters in the `button` shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.0 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.
