Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The rognone plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'mode' parameter in versions up to, and including, 0.6.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The rognone WordPress plugin versions up to 0.6.2 are vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the 'mode' parameter. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input sanitization and improper output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript through malicious URLs that trick users into clicking crafted links.

MitigationUpdate the rognone plugin to the latest version beyond 0.6.2 once available, or remove the plugin until a patched version is released.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate the rognone plugin in your WordPress installation
    Check the /wp-content/plugins/ directory for a folder named 'rognone' or search for 'rognone' in your WordPress plugins list via wp-admin > Plugins
    Affected if The rognone plugin folder exists in your plugins directory
  2. Determine the installed version of rognone plugin
    Check the main plugin file (usually rognone.php) for the 'Version' header comment, or view the plugin details in WordPress admin under Plugins > Installed Plugins
    Affected if The reported version is 0.6.2 or lower (e.g., 0.6.2, 0.6.1, 0.6.0, etc.)
  3. Identify if the 'mode' parameter is processed by the plugin
    Search the plugin PHP files for occurrences of '$_GET' or '$_REQUEST' referencing 'mode' parameter, or examine forms/URLs that pass a 'mode' parameter to rognone functionality
    Affected if The plugin code reads a 'mode' parameter from URL requests without sanitization
  4. Test for the reflected XSS condition
    If the plugin is active and uses the 'mode' parameter, craft a test URL such as yoursite.com/?page=rognone&mode=test"><script>alert(1)</script> and observe if the mode value is reflected unescaped in the HTML output
    Affected if The mode parameter value appears verbatim in the page source without HTML encoding (the script tag executes or appears in the page)

You are affected if the rognone plugin is installed with version 0.6.2 or below and the 'mode' parameter is processed by the plugin, causing unsanitized user input to be reflected in HTTP responses.

Mitigation available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Update the rognone plugin to the latest version beyond 0.6.2 once available, or remove the plugin until a patched version is released.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

rognone plugin version 0.6.3 or higher

  1. Log in to the WordPress admin dashboard
  2. Navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins
  3. Find the 'rognone' plugin
