WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Easy Digital Downloads < 2.11.6 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The plugin does not sanitise and escape the Downloadable File Name in the Logs, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed

Proof of Concept

Create/edit a Download and put the following payload in the File Name field: <img src=x:x onerror=alert(/XSS/)>
Download the file via the frontend (as unauthenticated for example)
The XSS will be triggered when viewing the Reports > Logs Page (/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=download&page=edd-reports&tab=logs)

Affects Plugins

Fixed in 2.11.6
