Vulnerabilities

CVE-2011-5194
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in vendors/samswhois/samswhois.inc.php in the Whois Search plugin before 1.4.2.3 for WordPress allo
Medium 4.3

The access label is read from the record's own text (e.g. “subscriber+”: subscriber and above). When the text names no role, CVSS decides between “login required” and “high privilege”; no role name is invented. “Needs a click”: the attack depends on a logged-in user following a link (CSRF, reflected XSS).
