Description
The WP Staging (Free less than or equal to 3.3.3, Pro less than or equal to 5.3.3) plugins for WordPress are vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in various versions due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled.
