CVE-2022-1814 describes a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the WP Admin Style WordPress plugin, affecting versions through 0.1.2. This flaw allows high-privilege users, such as administrators, to inject malicious scripts due to insufficient sanitization of plugin settings, specifically when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed. Rated with a CVSS score of 4.8 (Medium), the vulnerability requires high privileges (PR:H) and user interaction (UI:R) for exploitation, with a low impact on confidentiality and integrity (C:L/I:L). The attack complexity is low (AC:L), but the scope is changed (S:C), indicating the attacker can affect resources beyond their immediate privileges. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code is available on platforms like Metasploit or ExploitDB. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are minimal, aligning with the typical lack of attention for the majority of reported vulnerabilities.
