WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Connections Business Directory < 10.4.3 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Description
The plugin does not escape the Address settings when creating an Entry, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.
Proof of Concept
Add an Entry (/wp-admin/admin.php?page=connections_add) and put the following payload in the Address Line fields: inval1d"><img src onerror=alert('xss')>
The XSS will be triggered when accessing Manage page (/wp-admin/admin.php?page=connections_manage)
