Technical details

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the RadiusTheme Testimonial Slider and Showcase plugin for WordPress (version 2.2.6). The issue stems from a failure to properly sanitize user-supplied input in the 'post_title' parameter when creating or editing a testimonial. An authenticated attacker with Editor-level privileges can inject malicious JavaScript payloads into the testimonial title field. This script executes in the context of any user (including administrators) who views the draft or published testimonial, potentially allowing for session hijacking, cookie theft, or unauthorized administrative actions. A proof-of-concept exploit involving an 'onerror' attribute in an image tag has been publicly disclosed.
