Short explanation
Versions up to and including 5.5.89 of the WP Data Access plugin for WordPress are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Simple Form autocomplete lookup labels, enabling authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts.
Users with Subscriber-level access and above can inject web scripts while editing lookup rows. These scripts execute when other users, including higher-privileged users editing linked records, access the affected page.
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories and apply plugin updates when available
- Upgrade the plugin beyond the affected versions
Chain of evidence and sources
WP Data Access eklentisinin 5.5.89 ve önceki sürümleri Saklı XSS zafiyetine karşı savunmasızdır.
Zafiyet, WPDA_Autocomplete::autocomplete_lookup() fonksiyonundaki yetersiz çıktı kaçışından kaynaklanır.
Subscriber seviyesinde ve üzerindeki kimlik doğrulanmış saldırganlar bu açığı istismar edebilir.
Show the technical text from the sources
The WP Data Access plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Simple Form autocomplete lookup label in versions up to, and including, 5.5.89 This is due to insufficient output escaping on the value returned by WPDA_Autocomplete::autocomplete_lookup() when it is emitted into a single-quoted HTML attribute by WPDA_Simple_Form_Item_Autocomplete::show_item() (the escape-output lint is explicitly suppressed on the echo line). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, who are permitted to edit a lookup row through a legacy Form, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user — including a higher-privileged user editing a linked record that uses the autocomplete relationship — accesses the injected page.
