Descriptions

The Simple Banner WordPress plugin before 2.12.0 does not properly sanitize its "Simple Banner Text" Settings allowing high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.

El plugin Simple Banner de WordPress versiones anteriores a 2.12.0, no sanea apropiadamente su configuraciones "Simple Banner Text", lo que permite a usuarios con altos privilegios llevar a cabo ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting incluso cuando la capacidad unfiltered_html no está permitida.
