Stored Cross-Site Scripting Flaw in WordPress File Upload Plugins

CVE-2023-2767

What is CVE-2023-2767?

The WordPress File Upload and WordPress File Upload Pro plugins are susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping. This vulnerability allows authenticated users with administrator-level permissions to inject malicious scripts into administrative settings. Such scripts can execute on pages viewed by other users, presenting a security risk, particularly in multi-site installations and where unfiltered_html is disabled.
