Descriptions

The Shield Security WordPress plugin before 13.0.6 does not sanitise and escape admin notes, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html is disallowed.

El plugin Shield Security de WordPress versiones anteriores a 13.0.6, no sanea y escapa de las notas de administración, lo que podría permitir a usuarios con altos privilegios llevar a cabo ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting incluso cuando el unfiltered_html está deshabilitado
