AI-suggested

Users should monitor the vendor's advisory channels for updates. As a temporary mitigation, restrict Contributor-level access if possible and avoid using the 'twitpic' shortcode until a fix is released. Review and sanitize user inputs related to the shortcode manually if feasible.

Description

The wp-twitpic plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via multiple parameters of the 'twitpic' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
