TITLE:
WordPress Search Unleashed Plugin "s" Script Insertion Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28968

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28968/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Search Unleashed (plugin for WordPress) 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/17579/

DESCRIPTION:
Krzysztof Burghardt has discovered a vulnerability in the Search
Unleashed plugin for WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious
people to conduct script insertion attacks.

Input passed to the parameter "s" when performing a search is not
properly sanitised before being used. This can be exploited to insert
arbitrary HTML and script code, which is executed in an
administrator's browser session in context of an affected site when
the search log is viewed.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 0.2.10.

SOLUTION:
Reportedly, this will be fixed in version 0.2.11.

Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised.
