Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In January 2022
The WebP Converter for Media WordPress plugin before 4.0.3 contains a file (passthru.php) which does not validate the src parameter before redirecting the user to it, leading to an Open Redirect issue
The WP User Frontend WordPress plugin before 3.5.26 does not validate and escape the status parameter before using it in a SQL statement in the Subscribers dashboard, leading to an SQL injection. Due to the lack of sanitisation and escaping, this could also lead to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
The Affiliates Manager WordPress plugin before 2.9.0 does not validate, sanitise and escape the IP address of requests logged by the click tracking feature, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks against admin viewing the tracked requests.
The Contact Form Entries WordPress plugin before 1.2.4 does not sanitise and escape various parameters, such as form_id, status, end_date, order, orderby and search before outputting them back in the admin page
The Contact Form Entries WordPress plugin before 1.1.7 does not validate, sanitise and escape the IP address retrieved via headers such as CLIENT-IP and X-FORWARDED-FOR, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks against logged in admins viewing the created entry
The Registrations for the Events Calendar WordPress plugin before 2.7.10 does not escape the qtype parameter before outputting it back in an attribute in the settings page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
The UpdraftPlus WordPress Backup Plugin WordPress plugin before 1.6.59 does not sanitise its updraft_service settings, allowing high privilege users to set malicious JavaScript payload in it and leading to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue
The Simple Download Monitor WordPress plugin before 3.9.11 could allow users with a role as low as Contributor to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attack via 1) "color" or "css_class" argument of sdm_download shortcode, 2) "class" or "placeholder" argument of sdm_search_form shortcode.
The Simple Download Monitor WordPress plugin before 3.9.9 does not enforce nonce checks, which could allow attackers to perform CSRF attacks to 1) make admins export logs to exploit a separate log disclosure vulnerability (fixed in 3.9.6), 2) delete logs (fixed in 3.9.9), 3) remove thumbnail image from downloads
The WP Post Page Clone WordPress plugin before 1.2 allows users with a role as low as Contributor to clone and view other users' draft and password-protected posts which they cannot view normally.
