Badges
👾 Exploit Exists🟡 Public PoC
Summary
The WP Tabs WordPress plugin, prior to version 2.2.7, fails to adequately sanitize and escape certain settings. This shortcoming enables high privilege users, such as administrators, to execute Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, even in scenarios where the unfiltered_html capability is restricted, as is often the case in multisite installations.
Affected Version(s)
WP Tabs 0 < 2.2.7
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.
