Donate With QRCode < 1.4.5 - Stored Cross-Site Scripting

The plugin does not sanitise or escape its QRCode Image setting, which result into a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). Furthermore, the plugin also does not have any CSRF and capability checks in place when saving such setting, allowing any authenticated user (as low as subscriber), or unauthenticated user via a CSRF vector to update them and perform such attack. v1.4.4 added proper capability check as well as some sanitisation and escaping, but the affected parameter is still not properly escaped and CSRF check is completely missing v1.4.5 properly sanitised the affected parameter. CSRF still missing. A separate issue has been created for this
