Last Updated January 22, 2024
Description

The WP Site Protect plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting via the 'password' parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in a victim's browser. The author of this plugin has fixed this issue in GitHub, but not in the WordPress plugin repository.
