Descriptions

The Cooked Pro WordPress plugin before 1.7.5.6 was affected by unauthenticated reflected Cross-Site Scripting issues, due to improper sanitisation of user input while being output back in pages as an arbitrary attribute.

El plugin Cooked Pro WordPress versiones anteriores a 1.7.5.6 estuvo afectado por problemas de tipo Cross-Site Scripting reflejado no autenticado, debido a un saneamiento inapropiado de la entrada del usuario mientras se devuelve a las páginas como un atributo arbitrario

The Cooked Pro plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 1.7.5.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
