Summary

The SureDash plugin for WordPress is affected in all versions up to and including 1.12.1. Insufficient input sanitization and output escaping (CWE-79) let an authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access or higher store script in community post content through an image alt attribute. The entity-encoded payload passes server-side wp_kses filtering, which permits img alt attributes without normalizing entities, and is decoded client-side when GLightbox assigns the alt property to innerHTML, so the script runs whenever a user opens an affected page.

Description from the CNA

The SureDash – Community, Courses & Member Dashboard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via Image 'alt' Attribute in Community Post Content in all versions up to, and including, 1.12.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The entity-encoded payload bypasses server-side wp_kses filtering because kses permits the img/alt tag combination and does not normalize entities inside attribute values; the decode occurs client-side when GLightbox reads the .alt DOM property and assigns the result to innerHTML.
