Description
The Lazy Load for Videos plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via its lazy‑loading handlers in all versions up to, and including, 2.18.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. The plugin’s JavaScript registration handlers read the client‑supplied 'data-video-title' and 'href' attributes, decode HTML entities by default, and pass them directly into DOM sinks without any escaping or validation. 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.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the Lazy Load for Videos WordPress plugin up to version 2.18.7. It occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitize or escape input from certain attributes ('data-video-title' and 'href') before inserting them into the webpage's DOM. Authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts that execute when other users view the affected pages.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability allows attackers with Contributor-level access to inject malicious scripts into pages, which will execute in the browsers of users who visit those pages. This can lead to unauthorized actions such as stealing user data, session hijacking, or defacement of the website. Since the attack requires some level of authenticated access, it can be used to escalate privileges or compromise user trust.
