Descriptions

The The Enable Shortcodes inside Widgets,Comments and Experts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.0. This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes.

Esto se debe a que el software permite a los usuarios ejecutar una acción que no valida correctamente un valor antes de ejecutar do_shortcode.
