- The HT Menu WordPress plugin before 1.2.7 does not perform any capability or object-ownership check when saving navigation menu-item settings, and does not escape those stored settings when the menu is rendered, allowing users with minimal permissions such as Subscribers to store JavaScript that executes in the browser of any visitor, administrators included, who views the affected menu.

What to do if you run HT Menu
If you run HT Menu, open WordPress and check the installed version in Plugins. Compare it with the affected versions in the vulnerability record. If a fixed version is available, take a current backup and update to that version or the latest supported release.
If no fixed version exists, consider disabling and removing the plugin or replacing it with a maintained alternative. After dealing with the affected software, check administrator users, unexpected file changes, redirects, unfamiliar pages and security logs for signs that the site may already have been altered.
