Is FV Flowplayer Video Player safe? Known vulnerabilities and latest version

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'fv_player_videos[_fv_player_user_video][]' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.55.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires an administrator to have enabled the "Allow visitors to upload videos to their profile" (profile_videos_enable_bio) setting before Subscriber-level users can submit profile videos.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'comment' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.55.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the 'Parse Vimeo and YouTube links' option to be enabled and a site administrator to approve the comment containing the malicious shortcode; execution is then triggered for any visitor who interacts with the video player on that page.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'comment (shortcode attribute 'align')' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.55.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the plugin's 'Parse Vimeo and YouTube links' (parse_comments) setting to be enabled by an administrator, which causes the plugin to register do_shortcode on the comment_text filter, allowing attacker-supplied shortcode attributes stored in comments to be rendered unescaped to all subsequent visitors.

Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability in FolioVision FV Flowplayer Video Player fv-wordpress-flowplayer allows Object Injection.This issue affects FV Flowplayer Video Player: from n/a through 7.5.56.7212.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Limited Arbitrary File Upload in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.54.7212 via the check_mimetype function. This is due to incomplete file type validation in the check_mimetype function — while some extension checking is present, it can be bypassed, allowing attacker-supplied remote file content to be written with insufficient extension enforcement and no MIME check or WordPress upload helper. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to upload files that may be executable, which makes remote code execution possible. Exploitation requires the plugin's 'profile videos on bio' option to be enabled, as this causes the nonce to be emitted on the subscriber-accessible profile page; without this setting, authenticated users below Editor cannot obtain the required nonce.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player WordPress plugin before 7.5.55.7212 does not properly validate a user-supplied URL before performing a server-side fetch, and an existing host-based restriction fails to cover all cases, allowing users with Contributor-level access and above to perform Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks. The impact is limited to a semi-blind oracle: the server's fetch reveals whether an internal resource responds and its HTTP status, but the resource's contents are not returned to the attacker.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'synopsis' Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.54.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This requires the 'Parse Vimeo and YouTube links' (parse_comments) option to be enabled and the liststyle attribute set to "season" for the vulnerable code path to be reached.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Unquoted popup Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.54.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Successful exploitation requires the profile_videos_enable_bio option to be enabled, as script execution occurs on the author bio/archive page where the profile-video shortcode is rendered.

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in FolioVision FV Flowplayer Video Player fv-wordpress-flowplayer allows Stored XSS.This issue affects FV Flowplayer Video Player: from n/a through 7.5.54.7212.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'video_player' shortcode 'align' attribute in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.51.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Subscriber Cross Site Scripting (XSS) in FV Flowplayer Video Player < 7.5.51.7212 versions.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the comment text in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.49.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Exploitation requires an administrator to have enabled the non-default 'Parse Vimeo and YouTube links' (parse_comments) plugin setting, and requires a submitted comment to be approved by an administrator before the payload is publicly delivered.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to time-based SQL Injection via the ‘exclude’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 7.5.46.7212 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in Foliovision: Making the web work for you FV Flowplayer Video Player allows Stored XSS.This issue affects FV Flowplayer Video Player: from n/a through 7.5.41.7212.

The FV Flowplayer Video Player plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘_fv_player_user_video’ parameter saved via the 'save' function hooked via init, and the plugin is also vulnerable to Arbitrary Usermeta Update via the 'save' function in versions up to, and including, 7.5.37.7212 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page, and makes it possible to update the user metas arbitrarily, but the meta value can only be a string.
