WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Robo Gallery < 3.2.16 - Admin+ Stored XSS

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 even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

Proof of Concept

1. Go to: https://example.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=robo_gallery_table&page=robo-gallery-settings&tab=youtube 
2. In the "Youtube Api Key" enter the PoC: `"autofocus onfocus=alert(1)//` and save.
3. Navigate away and back into the YouTube settings and see the XSS.

Affects Plugins
