WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Site Reviews < 5.13.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS
Description
The plugin does not sanitise some of its Review Details when adding a review as an admin, which could allow them to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks when the unfiltered_html is disallowed
Proof of Concept
As an admin, create a review via the Admin dashboard (/wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=site-review) and add the following payload in the Name/IP Address fields of the Review Details section: <script>alert(/XSS/)</script> The XSS will be triggered when viewing the Reviews list table in the admin dashboard
