Loco Translate < 2.8.8 - Translator+ Stored XSS via PO File Extracted Comments

Description

The plugin is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via PO File Extracted Comments, due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with translator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
