Descriptions

The Slimstat Analytics WordPress plugin before 4.9.3 does not sanitise and escape the URI when logging requests, which could allow unauthenticated attackers to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks against logged in admin viewing the logs

El complemento Slimstat Analytics de WordPress anterior a 4.9.3 no sanitiza ni escapa el URI cuando registra solicitudes, lo que podría permitir a atacantes no autenticados realizar cross-site scripting almacenado contra administradores que hayan iniciado sesión y vean los registros.

The Slimstat Analytics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via REQUEST_URI in versions up to, and including, 4.9.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping when logging visitor requests. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever an administratoruser views those logs.
