WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Master Slider < 3.10.0 - Contributor+ Stored XSS

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ms_slide shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
