Descriptions

The WBW Currency Switcher for WooCommerce WordPress plugin before 1.6.6 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

El plugin WBW Currency Switcher for WooCommerce de WordPress versiones anteriores a 1.6.6, no sanea ni escapa de algunos de sus ajustes, lo que podría permitir a usuarios con altos privilegios, como el administrador, llevar a cabo ataques de tipo Cross-Site Scripting Almacenado incluso cuando la capacidad unfiltered_html no está permitida (por ejemplo, en una configuración multisitio)

The WBW Currency Switcher plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘blockip’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.6.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
