Technical details

The plugin improperly neutralizes user input during web page generation, enabling stored XSS attacks. Exploitation requires a contributor or developer role (privileged user) to craft malicious input, but the injected script persists and executes for all site visitors. An attacker with these privileges can steal visitor session tokens, credentials, or perform actions on their behalf.
