Descriptions

The Donation Block For PayPal WordPress plugin through 2.1.0 does not sanitise and escape form submissions, leading to a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability

The Donation Block For PayPal plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'donner_name' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.1.0 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 an injected page.
