Vulnerability Overview

The plugin Codup Read Only Admin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting via the read_only_admin parameter in the save_user_meta function in versions up to and including 1.1.1.7 due to insufficient sanitization. This makes it possible to attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Technical Analysis

REMEDIATION: Update to version 1.1.1.8, or a newer patched version --- IDENTIFIER: CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')) The product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users.
