TranslatePress <= 2.0.8 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting

4.8
Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')
CVE CVE-2021-24610
CVSS 4.8 (Medium)
Publicly Published August 30, 2021
Last Updated January 22, 2024
Researcher apapedulimu

Description

The TranslatePress WordPress plugin before 2.0.9 does not implement a proper sanitisation on the translated strings. The 'trp_sanitize_string' function only removes script tag with a regex, still allowing other HTML tags and attributes to execute javascript, which could lead to authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting issues.
