WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Image Optimizer by 10web < 1.0.27 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
Description
The plugin does not sanitise and escape the iowd_tabs_active parameter before rendering it in the plugin admin panel, leading to a reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability, allowing an attacker to trick a logged in admin to execute arbitrary javascript by clicking a link.
Proof of Concept
Make a logged in admin open https://example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=iowd_settings&msg=1&iowd_tabs_active=generalry8uo%22%3e%3cimg%20src%3da%20onerror%3dalert(1)%3ef0cmo
