WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Login using WordPress Users < 1.13.4 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The plugin does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

Proof of Concept

Put the following payload in the "IDP Metadata" > "IdP EntityID / Issuer" setting: "><script>alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))</script>
