WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Goolytics - Simple Google Analytics < 1.1.2 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The plugin does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.

Proof of Concept

As admin, put the following payloads in Settings > Goolytics > Google Analytics ID field and save:  "><svg/onload=prompt(/XSS/)>
