Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In March 2024
The Master Slider – Responsive Touch Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's ms_slide shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.10 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the 'src' user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
The Master Slider – Responsive Touch Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.10. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the 'process_bulk_action' function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to duplicate or delete arbitrary sliders via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link. CVE-2023-50900 and CVE-2024-6490 may be a duplicate of this issue.
The AI Engine: Chatbots, Generators, Assistants, GPT 4 and more! plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the AI chat data when discussion tracking is enabled in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
The Nextend Social Login and Register plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a self-based Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘error_description’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.1.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers, with access to a subscriber-level account, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. NOTE: This vulnerability can be successfully exploited on a vulnerable WordPress instance against an OAuth pre-authenticated higher-level user (e.g., administrator) by leveraging a cross-site request forgery in conjunction with a certain social engineering technique to achieve a critical impact scenario (cross-site scripting to administrator-level account creation). However, successful exploitation requires "Debug mode" to be enabled in the plugin's "Global Settings".
The Complianz – GDPR/CCPA Cookie Consent plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 6.5.6. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the process_delete function in class-DNSMPD.php. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to delete GDPR data requests via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
Due to insufficient server-side validation, a successful exploit of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain access to certain URLs that the attacker should not have access to.
Due to insufficient server-side validation, an attacker with login privileges could access certain resources that the attacker should not have access to by changing parameter values.
Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Pkp OJS v.3.4 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via the Input Title component.
Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Pkp OJS v.3.4 allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via the input subtitle component.
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Pkp Ojs v3.3 allows attackers to execute arbitrary web scripts or HTML via a crafted payload injected into the Publicname parameter.
