Lifecycle Timeline
2Description
The HTML Tag Shortcodes plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's shortcodes in all versions up to, and including, 1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
Analysis
Stored cross-site scripting in the HTML Tag Shortcodes WordPress plugin through version 1.1 allows authenticated contributors and above to execute arbitrary scripts on site pages through inadequately sanitized shortcode attributes. Affected users will run attacker-injected code whenever they visit compromised pages, potentially leading to session hijacking or malicious content injection.
