Descriptions

The Testimonials WordPress plugin before 2.7, super-testimonial-pro WordPress plugin before 1.0.8 do not sanitize and escape its settings, allowing high privilege users such as admin to perform cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.

El complemento Testimonials WordPress anterior a 2.7 y el complemento super-testimonial-pro de WordPress anterior a 1.0.8 no sanitiza y escapan de su configuración, lo que permite a usuarios con altos privilegios, como el administrador, realizar ataques de Cross-Site Scripting incluso cuando la capacidad unfiltered_html no está permitida.

The Testimonials plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via several parameter in versions up to, and including, 2.6 (Free) and 1.0.7 (Pro) due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
