CVE-2026-107657 Details
Description
The HivePress – Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the '<custom user attribute field name, e.g. profile_test>' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.31 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires an administrator to have configured a text-type custom user attribute whose display format places %value% inside an HTML attribute context (e.g., the documented pattern <a href="%value%">Custom link</a>), and for front-end user profiles to be enabled — both of which reflect the plugin's standard, documented configuration.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in the HivePress Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads Plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions through 1.7.31. The issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary scripts that execute when users access the compromised pages. Exploitation requires an administrator to have set up a text-type custom user attribute formatted to include %value% within an HTML attribute context, and for front-end user profiles to be activated, both of which are standard plugin configurations.
Users are advised to update the HivePress Business Directory, Listings & Classified Ads Plugin to version 1.7.32 or a newer patched version.
