WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
wpForo Forum < 2.4.6 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Profile Avatar
Description
The wpForo Forum plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.
