WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
EmbedSocial – Social Media Feeds, Reviews and Galleries < 1.2.1 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Description
The EmbedSocial – Social Media Feeds, Reviews and Galleries plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'embedsocial_reviews' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.29 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.
