Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
TinyMCE shortcode Addon plugin for WordPress versions prior to 1.0.1
Description
Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping allow authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting. This is achieved by injecting arbitrary web scripts through the
btnrel shortcode attribute, which execute when a user visits the affected page.Recommendations
Update the plugin to a version later than 1.0.0.
As a temporary mitigation, restrict the use of the
btnrel attribute in shortcodes for users with contributor-level access.Fix
XSS
