Title
Electric Studio Download Counter <= 2.4 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Settings Parameters
Summary
The Electric Studio Download Counter plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin settings in all versions up to, and including, 2.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Administrator-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
