Input validation vulnerability in Shield Security – Smart Bot Blocking & Intrusion Prevention Security 18.5.7

The Shield Security plugin used in WordPress has a security issue called Stored Cross-Site Scripting. This is because the function called “getColumnContent_Page” in versions up to 18.5.7 does not properly clean or protect input and output. This means that someone who is not logged in can add harmful code to a webpage, which will run whenever someone views that page.
