Descriptions

The Photospace Gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via its settings parameters saved via the update() function in versions up to, and including, 2.3.5 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.

El complemento Photospace Gallery para WordPress es vulnerable a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Almacenado a través de sus parámetros de configuración guardados mediante la función update() en versiones hasta la 2.3.5 incluida debido a una sanitización de entrada y un escape de salida insuficientes. Esto hace posible que atacantes autenticados, con permisos de nivel de suscriptor y superiores, inyecten scripts web arbitrarios en páginas que se ejecutarán cada vez que un usuario acceda a una página inyectada.
