Discussion
GigPress WordPress Plugin 'Notes' Field HTML Injection Vulnerability
The GigPress plugin for WordPress is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input.
Attacker-supplied HTML and script code could be executed in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible.
Versions prior to GigPress 2.1.10 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
