Summary

The Job Postings plugin for WordPress, specifically versions prior to 2.7.11, is susceptible to a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability. This arises due to insufficient sanitization and escaping of certain settings, allowing high privilege users, such as contributors, to execute harmful scripts. This weakness is particularly concerning in multisite environments where the unfiltered_html capability is disabled, thus elevating the risk of exploitation by malicious users.

Affected Version(s)

Job Postings 0 < 2.7.11

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
