DESCRIPTION:
Scott Herbert has discovered a vulnerability in the ABC Test plugin
for WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed via the "id" parameter to wp-admin/admin.php (when
"page" is set to "abctest" and "do" is set to "edit") 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 an affected site.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 0.2. Other versions may
also affected.

SOLUTION:
No official solution is currently available.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
