Summary

The Easy Demo Importer plugin for WordPress contains a vulnerability that allows stored cross-site scripting through SVG file uploads. This issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in all versions up to and including 1.1.2. Authenticated attackers with Author-level access and higher can exploit this flaw to inject arbitrary scripts, which execute whenever the compromised SVG file is accessed by a user. This presents a significant risk, as it could lead to unauthorized actions being performed on behalf of unsuspecting users.
