Stored script execution via unescaped plugin settings
Published May 30, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Stored XSS in Max Chirkov Simple Real Estate Pack 1.4.8 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to inject script through plugin settings. The plugin stores settings such as Consumer Key without sanitization and later emits their values into WordPress pages without output escaping. Administrator-level access and a configuration that disallows unfiltered_html are required; viewing an affected page executes the stored script in the visitor's browser.
