Descriptions

The Carousel Slider WordPress plugin before 2.2.10 does not validate and escape some of its Slide options before outputting them back in the page/post where the related Slide shortcode is embed, which could allow users with the Editor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks

El complemento Carousel Slider de WordPress anterior a 2.2.10 no valida ni escapa algunas de sus opciones de diapositiva antes de devolverlas a la página/publicación donde está incrustado el código abreviado de diapositiva relacionado, lo que podría permitir a los usuarios con la función de editor y superior realizar ataques de Cross-Site Scripting Almacenado

The Carousel Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via slide options settings in all versions up to, and including, 2.2.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with editor-level permissions 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.
