flash-album-gallery WordPress Plugin Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
The flash-album-gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by injecting malicious script code through the 'pid' parameter in the 'flagshow.php' file. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary script code in the victim's browser, allowing the attacker to potentially steal authentication credentials and launch further attacks.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, it is recommended to update the flash-album-gallery plugin to the latest version available. Additionally, input validation and sanitization techniques should be implemented to ensure that user-supplied data is properly handled and rendered.
