The Masteriyo LMS WordPress plugin before 2.3.3 does not sanitise and escape a quiz field before outputting it back in a page, and grants its instructor role the ability to store unfiltered HTML, allowing such users to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks against any visitor of the affected page, including administrators.
This affects default single-site installations. Sites running multisite, or defining DISALLOW_UNFILTERED_HTML, are not affected as the capability is not granted there.
