Descriptions

The User Meta WordPress plugin before 2.4.3 does not sanitise and escape the Form Name, as well as Shared Field Labels before outputting them in the admin dashboard when editing a form, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when unfiltered_html is disallowed

El plugin User Meta de WordPress versiones anteriores a 2.4.3, no sanea ni escapa el nombre del formulario, así como las etiquetas de los campos compartidos antes de mostrarlos en el panel de administración cuando se edita un formulario, lo que podría permitir a usuarios con altos privilegios llevar a cabo ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting incluso cuando unfiltered_html no está permitido
