WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Easy Table < 1.7 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting

The plugin 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 when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)

Proof of Concept

Put the following payload in any of the plugin's settings: "><script>alert(/XSS/)</script>
