Descriptions

The Simple File List WordPress plugin before 4.4.12 does not escape parameters before outputting them back in attributes, leading to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting

El plugin Simple File List de WordPress versiones anteriores a 4.4.12, no escapa los parámetros antes de devolverlos en atributos, conllevando a un ataque de tipo Cross-Site Scripting Reflejado.

The Simple File List plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘tab’ and 'subtab' parameters in versions up to, and including, 4.4.11 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.
