WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

WordPress Pinterest Plugin – Make a Popup, User Profile, Masonry and Gallery Layout < 1.8.9 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The WordPress Pinterest Plugin – Make a Popup, User Profile, Masonry and Gallery Layout plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'gs_pin_widget' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.8.8 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
