WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Stagtools < 2.3.7 - Contributor+ Stored XSS
Description
The plugin does not validate and escape some of its shortcode attributes before outputting them back in a page/post where the shortcode is embed, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
Proof of Concept
1. Create a Post and add a Shortcode. 2. Paste the stagcode in the input: ``` [stag_icon icon="link" url="https://example.com/" size='100px' new_window="no" style='test-style4 fa-link" onmouseover="alert(document.domain)" x="'] ``` 3. Save the post. Preview it. Hover your mouse over the icon.
