Description

The Astra theme for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `ast-page-background-meta` and `ast-content-background-meta` post meta fields in all versions up to, and including, 4.12.3. This is due to insufficient input sanitization on meta registration and missing output escaping in the `astra_get_responsive_background_obj()` function for four CSS-context sub-properties (`background-color`, `background-image`, `overlay-color`, `overlay-gradient`). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

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

  • brainstormforce Astra — Up to and including 4.12.3
