Technical details

A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress in versions prior to 7.5.51.7212. The issue stems from improper neutralization of user-supplied input, allowing an authenticated attacker with Subscriber-level privileges to inject arbitrary web scripts. Exploitation requires a victim (such as a site administrator) to interact with the malicious payload, typically by viewing a page where the script has been stored. Successful exploitation can lead to session hijacking, unauthorized administrative actions, or site defacement. The vulnerability is addressed in version 7.5.51.7212.
