Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-4466 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WordPress Infinite Scroll. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4466/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4466/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-4466","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4466/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-4466","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rvw8-f6xj-q79p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Contributors can inject malicious scripts via shortcode attributes, leading to stored XSS attacks against site visitors.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"ajax_load_more","vendor":"connekthq"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The WordPress Infinite Scroll WordPress plugin before 5.6.0.3 does not validate and escape some of its shortcode attributes before outputting them back in a page/post where the shortcode is embed, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WordPress Infinite Scroll - Ajax Load More \u003c 5.6.0.3 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4466","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Search \u0026 Filter \u003c 1.2.16 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4467"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WP Video Lightbox \u003c 1.9.7 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2022-4465"},"products":["WordPress Infinite Scroll"],"published":"2023-03-13","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ajax Load More \u003c 2.8.1.2 - Subscriber+ File Upload \u0026 Deletion","id":"CVE-2015-10140","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"WordPress Infinite Scroll – Ajax Load More \u003c= 5.5.3 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to PHAR Deserialization","id":"CVE-2022-2433","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-06"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Ajax Load More \u003c 5.3.2 - Authenticated SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24140","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-18"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Ajax Load More plugin \u003c= 7.3.1.2 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-47630","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-07"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Ajax Load More Plugin \u003c= 6.1.0.1 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-50874","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-28"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Ajax Load More – Infinite Scroll, Load More, \u0026 Lazy Load","id":"CVE-2024-8505","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-02"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"WordPress Infinite Scroll – Ajax Load More \u003c= 7.1.1 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-4711","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-27","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Contributors can inject malicious scripts via shortcode attributes, leading to stored XSS attacks against site visitors.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-4466/"}
