Descriptions

The Shared Files WordPress plugin before 1.6.61 does not sanitise and escape the Download Counter Text settings, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed

El plugin Shared Files de WordPress versiones anteriores a 1.6.61, no sanea ni escapa de la configuración del texto del contador de descargas, que podría permitir a usuarios con altos privilegios llevar a cabo ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting incluso cuando la capacidad unfiltered_html no está permitida
