Strategic Overview

Vulnerability Overview

The WooCommerce Product Carousel, Slider & Grid Ultimate plugin for WordPress, versions up to and including 1.8.6, is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting. The script /includes/carousel.php (as well as other setting-related scripts) does not sanitize user input. This allows a lower-level user (contributor and higher) to insert JavaScript into the database.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.8.7, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
