Vulnerability Overview

The Cooked – Recipe Management plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to HTML Injection in all versions up to, and including, 1.7.15.4. This is due to the plugin not properly escaping/validating input to _recipe_settings. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary HTML in a field that should not allow it.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.8.0, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-116 (Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output) The product prepares a structured message for communication with another component, but encoding or escaping of the data is either missing or done incorrectly. As a result, the intended structure of the message is not preserved.
