The TaxoPress – Create and Manage Taxonomies, Tags, Categories WordPress plugin before 3.0.7.2 does not sanitise its Taxonomy description field, allowing high privilege users to set JavaScript payload in them even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed, leading to an authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue.
