DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in the Redirection plugin for
WordPress, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct
cross-site scripting attacks.

Input passed via the "id" parameter to wp-admin/tools.php (when
"page" is set to "redirection.php") is not properly sanitised in
wp-content/plugins/redirection/view/admin/submenu.php before being
returned to the user. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML
and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected
site.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.2.8. Prior versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.2.9.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by the vendor.
