Descriptions

The Ditty WordPress plugin before 3.1.43 does not sanitise and escape some of its blocks' settings, which could allow high privilege users such as authors to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when unfiltered_html is disallowed

El complemento Ditty WordPress anterior a la versión 3.1.43 no sanitiza ni escapa a algunas de las configuraciones de sus bloques, lo que podría permitir a usuarios con altos privilegios, como autores, realizar ataques de cross-site scripting incluso cuando unfiltered_html no está permitido.

The Ditty – Responsive News Tickers, Sliders, and Lists plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the main text field in versions up to and including 3.1.42 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with author access and higher, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
