Description

The Name Directory WordPress plugin before 1.25.3 does not sanitise and escape a parameter before outputting it back in the page, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting. Furthermore, as the payload is also saved into the database after the request, it leads to a Stored XSS as well

Affected WordPress components

A confirmed match is backed by the plugin or theme slug. A possible match is based on the product name only and should be verified.

Affected products and versions

  • Unknown Name Directory — From 1.25.3 (including) to 1.25.3 (excluding)
  • name_directory_project name_directory — Before 1.25.3
