This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. 2) Input passed via the "option" parameter to wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/admin.cloner.php (when "task" is set to "dologin") is not properly sanitised in wp-content/plugins/xcloner-backup-and-restore/cloner.functions.php before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires that "register_globals" is enabled. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 3.0. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Update to version 3.0.1.
