Introduction
Instagram Feed is a WordPress plugin to display beautifully clean, customizable, and responsive feeds from multiple Instagram accounts. A persistent Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability was found in the Instagram Feed plugin. This issue allows an attacker to perform a wide variety of actions, such as stealing Administrators' session tokens, or performing arbitrary actions on their behalf. In order to exploit this issue, the attacker has to lure/force a logged on WordPress Administrator into opening a URL provided by an attacker.

Details
The settings page of the Instagram Feed plugin does not perform CSRF checks. It's possible to change all settings in the plugin by making an authenticated administrator perform a request to change the settings (CSRF). It's possible to change the Instagram access token and id to show images of other users. It's also possible to inject malicious JavaScript in the Customize section, to perform Persistent Cross-Site Scripting. Any user visiting the Instagram Feed will be injected with the attackers payload after the CSRF attack.

Proof of Concept
Have an authenticated admin visit a webpage with the following form:
-->
