Discovery Status: ================= Published Severity Level: =============== High Technical Details, Description & Proof of Concept (PoC): ======================================================== After installing Wordpress I add the plugin "Nextend Twitter Connect" witch allow you to login Wordpress with Twitter account. During my test I find out that the “redirect_to” parameter is vulnerable to Reflected XSS attack. http://www.siz.co.il/my.php?i=hvmwzqo0tmjw.png To reach to root of the problem, I took a look in the plugin source code and realized that the “new_Twitter_sign_button” witch located in the file “nextend-Twitter-connect.php”. The problematic function are locate in line 492: http://www.siz.co.il/my.php?i=bndijzkozjdy.png As you can see in the line 492, the function don’t escapes HTML tags or other dangerous symbols. When attacker injects the Javascript code in the URL the function runs the code, as you can see: http://www.siz.co.il/my.php?i=ni4jzmzjmrni.png And pop the alert window. Solution - Fix & Patch: ======================= In order to solve this security flaw you need to add the “htmlentities” function.
