HTTP: WordPress WP Shortcodes Plugin src Stored Cross-Site Scripting
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known cross-site scripting vulnerability against WordPress. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. Attackers can steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Extended Description
The WP Shortcodes Plugin Shortcodes Ultimate plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the src parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.3.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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.
