WPS Limit Login < 1.4.6.1 - Stored Cross-Site Scripting
Strategic Overview
Vulnerability Overview
The WPS Limit Login plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the IP address value that can be spoofed in versions up to, and including, 1.4.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
