Advisory

Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to wzy-ceb Attack defense.

The WP System Log WordPress plugin before 1.0.21 does not sanitise, validate and escape the IP address retrieved from login requests before outputting them in the admin dashboard, which could allow unauthenticated attacker to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks against admins viewing the logs.
