Vanilla Tagging Enchanced 1.0.1 Stored XSS
This plugin is based on the default tagging plugin that comes with Vanilla. Therefore this is vulnerable to the same attack. Create a new thread and post your XSS as tag. Once you have posted the thread, send an administrator or moderator to http://target.tld/index.php?p=/vanilla/post/editdiscussion/7, where 7 is the thread ID of the thread you just made. The XSS will then trigger.
Mitigation:
Ensure that user input is properly sanitized and validated before being used in the application.
