The vulnerability is fixed in Advanced Cron Manager version 2.5.7 and later. Users should upgrade to version 2.5.7 or newer to remediate this issue. No other mitigation or temporary fixes are indicated.

Description

Advanced Cron Manager WordPress plugin versions before 2.5.7 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw arises because some plugin settings are not properly sanitized or escaped. The vulnerability allows high privilege users, such as administrators, to inject malicious scripts even when the unfiltered_html capability is disabled, for example in multisite WordPress setups.
