WP Statistics < 9.1.3 - Authenticated (Admin+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Strategic Overview
< 9.1.3N/AVulnerability Overview
The WP Statistics plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'Check for online users every:' & 'Coefficient per visitor:' fields in versions before 9.1.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with admin-level privileges to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
