Descriptions
The Smush WordPress plugin before 3.9.9 does not sanitise and escape a configuration parameter before outputting it back in an admin page when uploading a malicious preset configuration, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting. For the attack to be successful, an attacker would need an admin to upload a malicious configuration file
El plugin Smush de WordPress versiones anteriores a 3.9.9, no sanea y escapa de un parámetro de configuración antes de devolverlo a una página de administración cuando es cargada una configuración preestablecida maliciosa, conllevando a un ataque de tipo un Cross-Site Scripting reflejado. Para que el ataque tenga éxito, un atacante necesitaría que un administrador subiera un archivo de configuración malicioso
The Smush – Lazy Load Images, Optimize & Compress Images plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'name' and 'description' parameters in versions up to, and including, 3.9.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. This requires an attacker to trick an administrator into uploading a malicious configuration file in order to be successful.
