Product: User Login History Wordpress Plugin -
https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-login-history/
Vendor: Er Faiyaz Alam
Tested version: 1.5.2
CVE ID: CVE-2017-15867
** CVE description **
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the user-login-history
plugin through 1.5.2 for WordPress allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary
web script or HTML via the (1) date_from, (2) date_to, (3) user_id, (4)
username, (5) country_name, (6) browser, (7) operating_system, or (8)
ip_address parameter to admin/partials/listing/listing.php.
** Technical details **
The above-mentioned HTTP GET parameters are directly put into the value
attribute of an HTML form field without proper sanitization. An attacker can
close the HTML input tag with the "> (%22%3E) expression and inject arbitrary
HTML/JavaScript code.
Example of the vulnerable code with the date_from parameter (line 21):
<td><input readonly="readonly" autocomplete="off" placeholder="<?php _e("From",
"user-login-history") ?>" id="date_from" name="date_from" value="<?php echo
isset($_GET['date_from']) ? $_GET['date_from'] : "" ?>"
class="textfield-bg"></td>
** Proof of Concept **
Example using the user_id parameter:
http://<host>/wordpress/wp-admin/admin.php?page=user-login-history&user_id=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29%3B%3C%2Fscript%3E
** Solution **
Update to version 1.6.

15/10/2017: vendor contacted
15/10/2017: vendor acknowledgment
