Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Widget Changer versions 1.0 through 1.2.5

Description The WP Widget Changer plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting. This is due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of the $ SERVER['PHP SELF'] variable. An unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary web scripts into pages, which will execute if a user is tricked into performing an action, such as clicking a link.

Recommendations Update WP Widget Changer to a version later than 1.2.5.
