Description

The Happierleads plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Client ID setting in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.1, due to the settings page being available to any user with the edit_posts capability and the stored Client ID being echoed into the input's value attribute without escaping (sanitize_text_field() does not encode quotes). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute whenever a user, including an administrator, opens the plugin's settings page.
