Technical details

The plugin fails to properly sanitize user input during web page generation, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript code into form data. An unauthenticated attacker can craft a malicious form submission containing XSS payloads; when a privileged user (such as an administrator) views the stored form data, the injected script executes in their browser context.
