The Welcome Bar plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 2.0.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only impacts multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.

CVSS

Score:5.9

Severity:Medium

Version: 2.0.4

The plugin vendor has not patched this vulnerability at the moment.
