Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Autoptimize WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.1.7

Description The issue allows high privileged users, such as administrators, to inject arbitrary javascript into the admin panel. This can occur even when the unfiltered html capability is disabled, for example, in a multisite setup. The problem arises from the plugin's failure to properly sanitise and escape settings imported from a previous export.

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.1.7, update to version 3.1.7 or later to resolve the issue.
