WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Front Editor <= 4.4.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS
Description
The plugin does not sanitize and escape some of its form settings, which could allow high-privilege users to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)
Proof of Concept
1. Add a new form. 2. For the "Post Title", add a "Label" of: <img src=x onerror=alert(/XSS/); >, or <script>alert(/XSS/)</script> 3. Save the form. 4. Edit the form and see JavaScript code executed.
