Description

The User Avatar WordPress plugin before 1.2.2 does not properly sanitize and escape certain of its shortcodes attributes, which could allow relatively low-privileged users like contributors to conduct Stored XSS attacks.

Affected WordPress components

A confirmed match is backed by the plugin or theme slug. A possible match is based on the product name only and should be verified.

Affected products and versions

  • Unknown User Avatar — Before 1.2.2
  • wpexperts user_avatar-reloaded — Before 1.2.2
