CVE-2022-28222: Reflected XSS in Spam protection, AntiSpam, FireWall by CleanTalk
The CleanTalk AntiSpam plugin <= 5.173 for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) via the $_REQUEST[‘page’] parameter in/lib/Cleantalk/ApbctWP/FindSpam/ListTable/Users.php
Update – after this article was published, Denis Shagimuratov of CleanTalk reached out to us on Twitter. It appears that they didn’t receive our disclosure because our contact at the company was no longer the correct recipient for this type of issue.
On February 15, 2022, the Wordfence Threat Intelligence team finished research on two separate vulnerabilities in Spam protection, AntiSpam, FireWall by CleanTalk, a WordPress plugin with over 100,000 installations. These were both reflected Cross-Site scripting vulnerabilities which could be used for site takeover if an attacker could successfully trick a site administrator into performing an action, such as clicking a link.
We initially attempted to contact CleanTalk the same day via a method that we had previously used to successfully report vulnerabilities. After we did not receive a response for over a month, we contacted the WordPress plugins team on March 22, 2022. A patched version, 5.174.1, was made available on March 25, 2022.
All Wordfence customers, including Wordfence Premium, Wordfence Care, and Wordfence Response customers as well as Wordfence free users, are protected against any exploits targeting these vulnerabilities by the Wordfence firewall’s built-in Cross-Site Scripting protection.
CleanTalk is a WordPress plugin designed to protect websites from spam comments and registrations. One of the features it includes is the ability to check comments for spam and present the spammy comments for deletion.
The plugin uses the column_ct_comment
function in /lib/Cleantalk/ApbctWP/FindSpam/ListTable/Comments.php
to display the list of spam comments, and in doing so generates links to approve, trash, or mark comments as spam using the value supplied in $_REQUEST[‘page’]
.
Thanks to a quirk of how WordPress processes the page parameter and the default PHP request order, it is possible to use this parameter to perform a reflected cross-site scripting attack, which is almost identical to a vulnerability we recently covered.
The vulnerability can be used to execute JavaScript in the browser of a logged-in administrator, for instance, by tricking them into visiting a self-submitting form that sends a POST request to the site at wp-admin/edit-comments.php?page=ct_check_spam
, with the $_POST[‘page’]
parameter set to malicious JavaScript.
As with any Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability, executing JavaScript in an administrator’s session can be used to take over a site by adding a new malicious administrator or injecting a backdoor, among other potential methods.
Similar to the spam comment functionality, CleanTalk also includes a feature that checks for spammy users and presents them in a similar table for review and deletion. In this case the vulnerable function is column_ct_username
in /lib/Cleantalk/ApbctWP/FindSpam/ListTable/Users.php
, which uses the value of $_REQUEST[‘page’]
to generate links to delete potentially spammy users. As with the spam comment vulnerability, if an administrator can be tricked into performing an action, it is possible to use JavaScript running in their browser to take over a site.
Timeline
February 15, 2022 – The Wordfence Threat Intelligence team finishes our investigation and verifies that the Wordfence firewall’s built-in protection is sufficient to block exploit attempts. We send the full disclosure to a contact at CleanTalk that we have successfully disclosed vulnerabilities to in the past.
March 22, 2022 – As we have not yet heard back from our contact, we reported the vulnerability to the WordPress plugins team.
March 25, 2022 – A patched version of the plugin, 5.174.1, becomes available.
Conclusion
In today’s article, we covered two nearly identical reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities in the Spam protection, AntiSpam, FireWall by CleanTalk plugin for WordPress. While both of these vulnerabilities require some degree of social engineering, both could be used for site takeover.
All Wordfence users, including those running Wordfence Premium, Wordfence Care, and Wordfence Response, as well as sites still running the free version of Wordfence, are fully protected against this vulnerability.
If you believe your site has been compromised as a result of this vulnerability or any other vulnerability, we offer Incident Response services via Wordfence Care. If you need your site cleaned immediately, Wordfence Response offers the same service with 24/7/365 availability and a 1-hour response time. Both these products include hands-on support in case you need further assistance.
If you know a friend or colleague who is using this plugin on their site, we highly recommend forwarding this advisory to them to help keep their sites protected, as this is a serious vulnerability that can lead to complete site takeover.

Databasir is a team-oriented relational database model document management platform. Databasir 1.01 has remote code execution vulnerability. JDBC drivers are not validated prior to use and may be provided by users of the system. This can lead to code execution by any basic user who has access to the system. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds to this issue.
Origin Protocol is a blockchain based project. The Origin Protocol project website allows for malicious users to inject malicious Javascript via a POST request to `/presale/join`. User-controlled data is passed with no sanitization to SendGrid and injected into an email that is delivered to the [email protected]. If the email recipient is using an email program that is susceptible to XSS, then that email recipient will receive an email that may contain malicious XSS. Regardless if the email recipient’s mail program has vulnerabilities or not, the hacker can at the very least inject malicious HTML that modifies the body content of the email. There are currently no known workarounds.
Shopware is an open commerce platform based on Symfony Framework and Vue. In affected versions an attacker can abuse the Admin SDK functionality on the server to read or update internal resources. Users are advised to update to the current version 6.4.10.1. For older versions of 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3, corresponding security measures are also available via a plugin.

Attackers can take advantage of this feature for SSRF.
wire-webapp is the web application interface for the wire messaging service. Insufficient escaping in markdown “code highlighting” in the wire-webapp resulted in the possibility of injecting and executing arbitrary HTML code and thus also JavaScript. If a user receives and views such a malicious message, arbitrary code is injected and executed in the context of the victim. This allows the attacker to fully control the user account. Wire-desktop clients that are connected to a vulnerable wire-webapp version are also vulnerable to this attack. The issue has been fixed in wire-webapp 2022-03-30-production.0 and is already deployed on all Wire managed services. On-premise instances of wire-webapp need to be updated to docker tag 2022-03-30-production.0-v0.29.2-0-d144552 or wire-server 2022-03-30 (chart/4.8.0), so that their applications are no longer affected. There are no known workarounds for this issue. ### Patches * The issue has been fixed in wire-webapp **2022-03-30-production.0** an...

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in 'MicroPayments - Paid Author Subscriptions, Content, Downloads, Membership' versions prior to 1.9.6 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to hijack the authentication of an administrator and perform unintended operation via unspecified vectors.
On Windows, if Git LFS operates on a malicious repository with a `..exe` file as well as a file named `git.exe`, and `git.exe` is not found in `PATH`, the `..exe` program will be executed, permitting the attacker to execute arbitrary code. This does not affect Unix systems. Similarly, if the malicious repository contains files named `..exe` and `cygpath.exe`, and `cygpath.exe` is not found in `PATH`, the `..exe` program will be executed when certain Git LFS commands are run. More generally, if the current working directory contains any file with a base name of `.` and a file extension from `PATHEXT` (except `.bat` and `.cmd`), and also contains another file with the same base name as a program Git LFS intends to execute (such as `git`, `cygpath`, or `uname`) and any file extension from `PATHEXT` (including `.bat` and `.cmd`), then, on Windows, when Git LFS attempts to execute the intended program the `..exe`, `..com`, etc., file will be executed instead, but only if the intended progra...

The Elementor Website Builder plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized execution of several AJAX actions due to a missing capability check in the ~/core/app/modules/onboarding/module.php file that make it possible for attackers to modify site data in addition to uploading malicious files that can be used to obtain remote code execution, in versions 3.6.0 to 3.6.2.
Smokescreen is a simple HTTP proxy that fogs over naughty URLs. The primary use case for Smokescreen is to prevent server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks in which external attackers leverage the behavior of applications to connect to or scan internal infrastructure. Smokescreen also offers an option to deny access to additional (e.g., external) URLs by way of a deny list. There was an issue in Smokescreen that made it possible to bypass the deny list feature by appending a dot to the end of user-supplied URLs, or by providing input in a different letter case. Recommended to upgrade Smokescreen to version 0.0.3 or later.
