Descriptions

The WassUp Real Time Analytics WordPress plugin through 1.9.4.5 does not escape IP address provided via some headers before outputting them back in an admin page, allowing unauthenticated users to perform Stored XSS attacks against logged in admins

El complemento WassUp Real Time Analytics de WordPress hasta la versión 1.9.4.5 no escapa a la dirección IP proporcionada a través de algunos encabezados antes de enviarlos nuevamente a una página de administración, lo que permite a los usuarios no autenticados realizar ataques XSS Almacenados contra administradores que hayan iniciado sesión.

The WassUp Real Time Analytics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via spoofed IP Addresses in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.4.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the injected page.
