Title
faq shortocde <= 1.0 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'color' Shortcode Attribute
Summary
The faq shortocde plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'color' shortcode attribute in the 'faq' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Title
xmlrpc attacks blocker <= 1.0 - Unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'X-Forwarded-For'
Summary
The xmlrpc attacks blocker plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to, and including, 1.0, via the 'X-Forwarded-For' HTTP header. This is due to the plugin trusting and logging attacker-controlled IP header data and rendering debug log entries without output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when an administrator views the debug log page.
