Medium 6.4
In plain English
A medium-severity cross-site scripting in jAlbum Bridge from mlaza. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.3% (higher than 27% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
The jAlbum Bridge plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘ar’ parameter in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.16 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. It was determined that the patch in 2.0.16 was insufficient, and 2.0.17 is considered the fully patched version.
