Descriptions

The thumb_url parameter of the AJAX call to the editimage_bwg action of admin-ajax.php is vulnerable to reflected Cross Site Scripting. The value of the thumb_url parameter is embedded within an existing JavaScript within the response allowing arbitrary JavaScript to be inserted and executed. The attacker must target a an authenticated user with permissions to access this component to exploit this issue.

El parámetro thumb_url de la llamada AJAX a la acción editimage_bwg de admin-ajax.php es vulnerable al Cross Site Scripting reflejado. El valor del parámetro thumb_url está incrustado dentro de un JavaScript existente dentro de la respuesta, lo que permite insertar y ejecutar JavaScript arbitrario. El atacante debe apuntar a un usuario autenticado con permisos para acceder a este componente para aprovechar este problema.

The Photo Gallery by 10Web – Mobile-Friendly Image Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'thumb_url' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.21 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.
