WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Widgets Controller <= 1.1 - Unauthenticated Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The Widgets Controller plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 1.1 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.
