Stored XSS via forged admin settings request
Published Aug 7, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
Stored XSS in WP Shopping Pages 1.14 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject JavaScript through a forged admin request. The amtp-addpages-page settings handler accepts the amazon_affid field without a CSRF check or adequate sanitization and later renders the stored value without escaping. Exploitation requires a logged-in administrator to visit attacker-controlled content, after which the payload runs in visitors' browser sessions.
