Strategic Overview
<= 1.10.4N/AVulnerability Overview
The Universal Star Rating plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘usrCustomImagesFolder’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.10.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
