Summary

The SmugMug Embed WordPress plugin through 3.13 does not have authorisation or CSRF checks on an AJAX action that stores gallery data, and does not sanitise or escape that data before outputting it, allowing unauthenticated users to store arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator views the SmugMug Embed WordPress plugin through 3.13's settings screen.

Risk Assessment

Stored XSS can lead to administrator session hijacking, data theft, or spreading malware to site visitors.

Recommendation

Update the SmugMug Embed plugin to the latest version that includes security fixes. If not available, consider removing or disabling it until a patch is released.
