DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Multisite Plugin
Manager plugin for WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious
people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed via the "mass_activate" and "mass_deactivate" parameters
to wp-admin/network/plugins.php ( when "page" is set to
"plugin-management") 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 vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 3.1.1. Prior versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 3.1.2.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
