Description
The WOLF plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the wpbe_update_page_field parameter in versions up to, and including, 1.0.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber privileges, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
