Descriptions

The Post Grid, Slider & Carousel Ultimate WordPress plugin before 1.5.0 does not sanitise and escape the Header Title, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.

El plugin Post Grid, Slider & Carousel Ultimate de WordPress versiones anteriores a 1.5.0, no sanea ni escapa del Título del Encabezado, lo que podría permitir a usuarios muy privilegiados llevar a cabo ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting incluso cuando la capacidad unfiltered_html está deshabilitada
