Descriptions

The WordPress Button Plugin MaxButtons WordPress plugin before 9.7.8 does not sanitise and escape some parameters, which could allow users with a role as low as editor to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks

El complemento WordPress Button Plugin MaxButtons de WordPress anterior a 9.7.8 no sanitiza ni escapa a algunos parámetros, lo que podría permitir a los usuarios con un rol tan bajo como el de editor realizar ataques de cross-site scripting

The WordPress Button Plugin MaxButtons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘Custom Rel Tag' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 9.7.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Editor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
