info:
|
|
name: WordPress W3 Total Cache <2.1.5 - Cross-Site Scripting
|
|
author: theamanrawat
|
|
severity: medium
|
|
description: |
|
|
WordPress W3 Total Cache plugin before 2.1.5 is susceptible to cross-site scripting via the extension parameter in the Extensions dashboard, when the setting 'Anonymously track usage to improve product quality' is enabled. The parameter is output in a JavaScript context without proper escaping. This can allow an attacker, who can convince an authenticated admin into clicking a link, to run malicious JavaScript within the user's web browser, which could lead to full site compromise.
|
|
impact: |
|
|
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to inject malicious scripts into the affected website, leading to potential data theft, session hijacking, or defacement.
|
|
remediation: Fixed in version 2.1.5.
