WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Change WordPress Login Logo < 1.1.5 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The height, and width fields used to update the custom logo was found to be vulnerable to stored XSS, as they did not sanitize user input properly before publishing the changes. It is triggered when a user loads the login page.

Proof of Concept

Set the following payload as Height or Width in the plugin's settings: 100}</style><script>alert(0)</script>

Fixed in 1.1.5
