Descriptions

The Quiz And Survey Master WordPress plugin before 8.1.11 does not properly sanitize and escape question titles, which could allow users with the Contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks

The Quiz And Survey Master plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via a question title in versions up to, and including 8.1.10 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
