Vendor
CVE Published:
27 September 2021

Summary

The TranslatePress WordPress plugin before 2.0.9 does not implement a proper sanitisation on the translated strings. The 'trp_sanitize_string' function only removes script tag with a regex, still allowing other HTML tags and attributes to execute javascript, which could lead to authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting issues.

Affected Version(s)

Translate Multilingual sites – TranslatePress 2.0.9
