Description

The ChatBot plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ‘qlcd_wp_chatbot_email_sub’ parameter in versions up to, and including, 4.3.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for administrator-level attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
