See how all in one seo compares to other vendors in security performance
The All in One SEO WordPress plugin before 5.0.0.1 does not sanitise and escape some content stored in posts before rendering it back in the post editor, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks that trigger when a higher privileged user edits the post.
The All in One SEO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure via 'internalOptions' localized script data in versions up to, and including, 4.9.7 due to sensitive internal option data being passed to wplocalizescript() in post editor contexts without effective masking for low-privilege users. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to view configured API/OAuth tokens and license-related values from page source.
The All in One SEO WordPress plugin before 4.9.9 does not correctly restrict access to some of its AI integration REST API endpoints, allowing users with low-level privileges such as Contributors to overwrite or reset the site-wide AI integration state.
The All in One SEO – Best WordPress SEO Plugin – Easily Improve SEO Rankings & Increase Traffic plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's shortcode(s) in all versions up to, and including, 4.6.0 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.
The All in One SEO – Powerful SEO Plugin to Boost SEO Rankings & Increase Traffic plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the post Meta Description and Canonical URL parameters in all versions up to, and including, 4.8.1.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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.
The All in One SEO – Powerful SEO Plugin to Boost SEO Rankings & Increase Traffic plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized arbitrary media attachment deletion due to a missing authorization check in all versions up to, and including, 4.8.9. This is due to the REST API endpoint /wp-json/aioseo/v1/ai/image-generator only verifying that users have the editposts capability (Contributors and above) without checking if they own or have permission to delete the specific media attachments. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to permanently delete arbitrary media attachments by ID via the REST API, granted they can determine valid attachment IDs.
The All in One SEO WordPress plugin before 4.6.1.1 does not validate and escape some of its Post fields before outputting them back, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks
