The Slippy Slider – Responsive Touch Navigation Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'slippy-slider' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. 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.

Executive Summary

The Slippy Slider plugin for WordPress has a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in its 'slippy-slider' shortcode. This occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitize or escape user-supplied attributes, allowing authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher to inject malicious scripts. These scripts execute whenever any user views the affected page.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow 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 theft of user credentials, session hijacking, defacement, or other malicious actions performed in the context of the affected website.
