Until a fix is available, restrict access to the plugin's settings page to trusted administrators only and consider disabling or removing the plugin if possible.
Description
The WP Real IP-based Access Control WordPress plugin up to version 1.3.1 contains a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This occurs because the plugin does not perform capability or nonce checks before storing certain option values and fails to escape these values on its settings page. As a result, unauthenticated users can inject arbitrary JavaScript that executes in the context of administrators viewing the page.
