Description
The Better Font Awesome plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via shortcode attributes (such as 'title', 'size', and class strings) in versions up to, and including, 2.0.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for contributor-level attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
