Description

The Ultimate Posts Widget WordPress plugin before 2.3.1 does not validate and escape some of its Widget options before outputting them back in attributes, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

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 Ultimate Posts Widget — Before 2.3.1
  • themecheck ultimate_posts_widget — Before 2.3.1
  • inisev ultimate_posts_widget — Before 2.3.1
