Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Evaluate WordPress plugin version 1.0

Description The issue allows high-privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example, in a multisite setup. This is due to the plugin not sanitizing and escaping some of its settings.

Recommendations For Evaluate WordPress plugin version 1.0, update to a version that properly sanitizes and escapes its settings to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the ability of high-privilege users to access and modify the plugin's settings until a patch is available.
