WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

WP AdCenter – Ad Manager & Adsense Ads < 2.5.7 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via ad_alignment Attribute

Description

The WP AdCenter – Ad Manager & Adsense Ads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘ad_alignment’ attribute in all versions up to, and including, 2.5.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
