Description

The WordPress Pinterest Plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'gs_pinterest' shortcode in versions up to, and including, 1.6.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
