HTTP: WP Ajax Calendar example.php Cross Site Scripting
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known cross-site scripting vulnerability in the WP Ajax Calendar Plugin. It is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. Attackers can steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.
Extended Description
WP Ajax Calendar is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This can allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks. WP Ajax Calendar 1.0 is vulnerability; other versions may also be affected.
