webvitalyiframe
Description#
The iframe plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `iframe` shortcode in versions up to, and including, 4.6 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.

This was partially patched in version 4.6 and fully patched in version 4.7.
