WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Slide Anything < 2.3.47 - Author+ Cross Site Scripting in slide title

Description

The plugin does not properly sanitize or escape the slide title before outputting it in the admin pages, allowing a logged in user with roles as low as Author to inject a javascript payload into the slide title even when the unfiltered_html capability is disabled.

An incomplete fix was introduced in version 2.3.46

Proof of Concept

Create new Slide where the tile is the XSS payload: ';alert(title);//'

The script then will be executed everywhere when the code is embedded.

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 2.3.47
