Technical details

This is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the WP Visitor Statistics plugin due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the 'os' parameter (and related parameters including 'browser' and 'res'). The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript that persists in the application and executes in the context of any user viewing an injected page, potentially leading to session hijacking or malware distribution.
