Subscribe to Comments Plugin for WordPress Multiple Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities
The Subscribe to Comments plugin for WordPress is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data. Attacker-supplied HTML or JavaScript code could run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials; other attacks are also possible.
Mitigation:
Input validation should be used to ensure that user-supplied data is properly sanitized.
