The vulnerability exists because `WPRM_Metadata::sanitize_metadata()` recursively calls `do_shortcode()` on every scalar field of the recipe's structured metadata array — including the `reviewBody` field, which is populated verbatim from the `comment_content` of approved `wprm-comment-rating` comments — without sanitizing or stripping shortcode tokens before execution; the subsequent `wp_strip_all_tags()` and `strip_shortcodes()` calls operate only on the output string after execution has already fully occurred, providing no protection against server-side shortcode invocation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary registered WordPress shortcodes server-side on every recipe page render, causing shortcode output — such as attachment captions, private post fields, or other data exposed by installed shortcodes — to be embedded in the page's JSON-LD `reviewBody` metadata and disclosed to all visitors who load the recipe page. Successful exploitation requires the attacker's rated comment to pass the site's comment approval threshold, either via auto-approval or moderator action, before the injected shortcode begins executing on page loads."}],"title":"WP Recipe Maker <= 10.8.1 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Shortcode Execution via Recipe Comment Content","references":[{"url":"https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/d6ad49ff-85eb-4d05-ba23-51d89695add3?source=cve"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-recipe-maker/tags/10.8.1/includes/public/class-wprm-metadata.php#L553"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-recipe-maker/tags/10.8.1/includes/public/class-wprm-metadata.php#L1028"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wp-recipe-maker/tags/10.8.1/includes/public/class-wprm-metadata.php#L181"},{"url":"https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset?reponame=&old=3699793%40wp-recipe-maker&new=3699793%40wp-recipe-maker"}],"problemTypes":[{"descriptions":[{"lang":"en","description":"CWE-94 Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')","cweId":"CWE-94","type":"CWE"}]}],"metrics":[{"cvssV3_1":{"version":"3.1","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","baseScore":9.1,"baseSeverity":"CRITICAL"}}],"credits":[{"lang":"en","type":"finder","value":"Md.
