Descriptions

The UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the showdata and initiate_restore parameters in all versions up to, and including, 1.24.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick an admin user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

El complemento UpdraftPlus: WP Backup &amp; Migration Plugin para WordPress es vulnerable a ataques de cross site scripting reflejado a través de los parámetros showdata e attempt_restore en todas las versiones hasta la 1.24.12 incluida, debido a una desinfección de entrada y un escape de salida insuficientes. Esto permite que atacantes no autenticados inyecten scripts web arbitrarios en páginas que se ejecutan si logran engañar a un usuario administrador para que realice una acción como hacer clic en un enlace.
