Descriptions

The Image Optimizer by 10web WordPress plugin before 1.0.27 does not sanitise and escape the iowd_tabs_active parameter before rendering it in the plugin admin panel, leading to a reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability, allowing an attacker to trick a logged in admin to execute arbitrary javascript by clicking a link.

The Image Optimizer WD plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'iowd_tabs_active' parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.0.26 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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.
