The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross-site scripting flaw that allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts into comments. When a site administrator enables the "Parse Vimeo and YouTube links" feature, these injected scripts execute for all users viewing the affected page, potentially compromising visitor accounts or spreading malware. Exploitation requires the vulnerable plugin setting to be active.

How to fix

Disable the "Parse Vimeo and YouTube links" (parse_comments) setting in the plugin configuration if upgrading is not immediately possible, which prevents the plugin from processing shortcode attributes in comments.

Technical details

The plugin fails to sanitize the 'align' shortcode attribute in comments when the parse_comments feature is enabled, allowing unauthenticated attackers to store arbitrary HTML and JavaScript in comment text. The vulnerability stems from insufficient input validation and output escaping when do_shortcode is registered on the comment_text filter, rendering attacker-supplied shortcode attributes unescaped to all subsequent page visitors. The fix adds input validation to whitelist only safe alignment values ('left', 'right', 'center').
