See how youtube compares to other vendors in security performance
YouTube Video Grabber, now referred to as YouTube Downloader, 1.9.9.1 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by overwriting the Structured Exception Handler. Attackers can craft a malicious payload of 712 bytes with SEH manipulation to trigger a bind shell connection on a specified local port.
The YouTube Embed plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘instance’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 10.3 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.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in siteadmin/editorfiles/includes/loadmessage.php in the Youtube Clone Script allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the lang[pleasewait] parameter.
