MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
W-DALIL WordPress plugin versions 2.0 and earlier
Description
The issue allows high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example in a multisite setup. This is due to the plugin not sanitizing and escaping some of its fields.
Recommendations
For W-DALIL WordPress plugin versions 2.0 and earlier, update to a version that addresses the sanitization and escaping of fields to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the unfiltered html capability to minimize the risk of exploitation.
