If you cannot patch yet, restrict user roles that can create or edit posts with the Nested Pages plugin enabled, and avoid granting Editor or Contributor/Author roles unnecessary privileges.

Description

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in the Nested Pages WordPress plugin before version 3.2.15. This flaw allows users with Editor role or Contributor/Author roles (when enabled for the post type) to inject arbitrary JavaScript via post titles on an administrative listing screen. The injected script executes in the context of higher-privileged users who view that screen.
