Summary

The Simple Video Management System Plugin for WordPress allows high privilege users, such as administrators, to exploit a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to insufficient sanitization and escaping of certain settings. This weakness persists even when the unfiltered_html capability is disabled, making it particularly risky in multisite environments, where multiple users and heightened privileges are present.

Affected Version(s)

Simple Video Management System 0 <= 1.0.4

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.
