AlienVault OTX Vulnerabilities

AlienVault OTX Malware

The social-warfare plugin before 3.5.3 for WordPress has stored XSS via the wp-admin/admin-post.php?swp_debug=load_options swp_url parameter, as exploited in the wild in March 2019. This affects Social Warfare and Social Warfare Pro.

CVE-2019-9978 is a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Social Warfare WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.5.3, including both the free and Pro editions. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of the 'swp_url' parameter passed via the 'wp-admin/admin-post.php?swp_debug=load_options' endpoint. An attacker can exploit this flaw by injecting malicious JavaScript code into the vulnerable parameter, which is then stored and subsequently executed in the context of the WordPress admin interface or potentially other users viewing affected pages. This stored XSS can lead to session hijacking, privilege escalation, or redirection to malicious sites. The vulnerability was publicly disclosed in March 2019 and carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.1, indicating a medium severity level. The attack vector is network-based (remote), requires no privileges, but does require user interaction (such as an administrator or user visiting a crafted URL). The scope is changed (S:C) because the vulnerability can affect components beyond the initially vulnerable plugin, potentially impacting the confidentiality and integrity of the WordPress environment. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation), a common web application security flaw. Although no specific exploits in the wild have been documented, the vulnerability was actively exploited shortly after disclosure, emphasizing the importance of patching. No official patch links were provided in the source, but upgrading to Social Warfare plugin version 3.5.3 or later is known to remediate the issue.
