Technical details
The WP Travel Engine plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the 'wte_trip_tax' shortcode. The root cause is insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes within the shortcode implementation. An authenticated attacker with contributor-level permissions or higher can exploit this by injecting arbitrary web scripts into a post or page. These scripts will execute in the context of any user's browser who visits the compromised page. The vulnerability is addressed in version 6.7.6.
