Technical details
This is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the campaign image ALT text field. The vulnerable component uses only wp_strip_all_tags() to process the ALT text before outputting it into an HTML img attribute, which does not escape double quotes. An attacker with campaign-manager or administrator role can inject a payload like 123123"onmouseover=alert(999) that breaks out of the alt attribute and injects an event handler. The payload executes when any visitor hovers over the image on the front-end campaign page. No user interaction from the victim is required beyond viewing the campaign page; the vulnerability is triggered automatically upon page load or hover. The fix is available in version 1.8.5.3 and later.
