WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Digital Climate Strike WP <= 1.0.0 - Redirect to Malicious Website due to Compromised JS Asset

Description

The plugin loads a JavaScript asset from a remote website which seems to have been compromised. The widget.js file, loaded from https://assets.digitalclimatestrike.net/widget.js, redirects users to gladdiator[dot]io and is being flagged as malicious.

I've reported this to the plugin authors but have not heard anything back yet.

Proof of Concept

The PoC will be displayed once the issue has been remediated.
