Description

Multisite Plugin Manager Plugin for WordPress contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'mass_activate' and 'mass_deactivate' parameters upon submission to the wp-admin/network/plugins.php script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted request that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
