Description

The CYAN Backup WordPress plugin before 2.5.3 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, 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 CYAN Backup — Before 2.5.3
  • toolstack cyan_backup — Before 2.5.3
