Descriptions
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Erin Garscadden GC Testimonials plugin <= 1.3.2 versions.
The GC Testimonials plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting via an unknown parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.3.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for contributor-level attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
