Description

The Google Language Translator plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting via the glt shortcode in versions up to, and including, 6.0.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers at the Author level to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
