Slickr Flickr <= 2.8.1 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The plugin does not sanitise and escape its settings, allowing high privilege users such as admin to perform cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed.

Proof of Concept

Open the plugin and intercept the request using burpsuite. 

Give the below payload in the parameter "flickr_id" and submit the request. 
xss"/><script>prompt(2)</script>//xss

The stored XSS will be triggered whenever the user visits the page.
