GiveWP <= 4.16.3 - Authenticated (Give Worker+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'twitter_message' Sequoia Template Setting
Strategic Overview
<= 4.16.3CVE-2026-14987Vulnerability Overview
The GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'twitter_message' Sequoia Template Setting in all versions up to, and including, 4.16.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with give worker-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The injected script executes specifically when a donor clicks the Share on Twitter button on the Sequoia donation confirmation view, as that is when the unescaped twitter_message value is evaluated inside the JavaScript template literal.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 4.16.4, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
