Vulnerability Overview

The WP Customer Reviews plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to malicious redirects in all versions up to, and including, 3.7.0. This is due to the plugin not properly validating the Business Name field. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject malicious redirects.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 3.7.1, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-601 (URL Redirection to Untrusted Site ('Open Redirect')) The web application accepts a user-controlled input that specifies a link to an external site, and uses that link in a redirect.
