What happened
The Masteriyo LMS WordPress plugin before 3.4.0 does not sanitise and escape some course settings before outputting them in a page available to all visitors, allowing users with a course-author role to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks that run in the session of anyone viewing the course, including a logged-in administrator.
