Vulnerability CVE-2022-4697
Published: 2022-12-23
| Description: |
The ProfilePress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ??wp_user_cover_default_image_url?? parameter in versions up to, and including, 4.5.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled. |
Type:
CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'))
