Descriptions

The WP Helper Lite WordPress plugin, in versions < 4.3, returns all GET parameters unsanitized in the response, resulting in a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability.

El complemento WP Helper Lite de WordPress, en versiones &lt;= 4.3, devuelve todos los parámetros GET no saneados en la respuesta, lo que genera una vulnerabilidad de cross-site scripting reflejado.

The WP Helper Premium plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 4.2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on the GET data returned to a user via the surveySubmit_func() function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
