Input validation vulnerability in HTML filter and csv-file search 2.7

The WordPress HTML filter and csv-file search plugin, which is available up to version 2.7, is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting. This means that if an attacker has contributor-level permissions or higher, they can inject web scripts into pages that will run whenever a user views the page. This is caused by the plugin not properly sanitizing user-supplied data and not properly escaping output.
