Description

The CLUEVO LMS, E-Learning Platform WordPress plugin before 1.8.1 does not sanitise and escape Course's module, which could allow high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed The CLUEVO E-Learning Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 1.8.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the Course's module.
