WP-Recall <= 16.26.11 - Authenticated (Admin+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Strategic Overview
<= 16.26.11CVE-2024-9771Vulnerability Overview
The WP-Recall plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 16.26.11 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
Technical Analysis
REMEDIATION: Update to version 16.26.12, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')) The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
