WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
PubyDoc <= 2.0.6 - 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 Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when unfiltered_html is disallowed
Proof of Concept
1) After the installing the plugin, create a new table at /wp-admin/admin.php?page=pyt-tables&tab=tables-new, and insert the following malicious XSS payload in its "Title" field: `"><img src=x onerror=confirm(1)>` 2) Save the payload, and notice the injection alert() box popping up when viewing the full list of tables in `/wp-admin/admin.php?page=pyt-tables&tab=tables`
