WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Analytics for WP <= 1.5.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS
Description
The plugin does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup).
Proof of Concept
1. In the Settings page of this plugin, in the box named "Tracking Code", enter the following payload: 123" onmouseenter=alert(alert(/XSS/) " 2. Click the 'Save Changes' button on the page. 3. Refresh or re-enter the page and move the mouse over the input box to trigger the XSS.
