WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
HTML5 Audio Player – The Ultimate No-Code Podcast, MP3 & Audio Player <= 2.8.8 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Description
The HTML5 Audio Player – The Ultimate No-Code Podcast, MP3 & Audio Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.8.8. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
