See how directorypress compares to other vendors in security performance
The DirectoryPress – Business Directory And Classified Ad Listing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to SQL Injection via the 'packages' parameter in versions up to, and including, 3.6.26 due to insufficient escaping on the user supplied parameter and lack of sufficient preparation on the existing SQL query. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to append additional SQL queries into already existing queries that can be used to extract sensitive information from the database.
The DirectoryPress – Business Directory And Classified Ad Listing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG File uploads in all versions up to, and including, 3.6.16 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file. When DirectoryPress Frontend is installed, this can be exploited by unauthenticated users.
The DirectoryPress Frontend plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.9. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the dpfllistingStatusChange() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update listing statuses via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
