Description

The Easy Property Listings plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'epl_action' and 'epl-action' request parameters in all versions up to, and including, 3.5.25. This is due to the plugin firing any 'epl_'-prefixed action named by the parameter on the init and admin_init hooks, for any visitor and with the raw request array as the action's arguments. This lets visitors call internal field-rendering callbacks such as the search select renderer, which writes request-supplied option keys into its data-min and data-max attributes without escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
