    CVE-2023-0429

    The Watu Quiz WordPress plugin before 3.3.8.2 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup).
