The Photonic Gallery & Lightbox for Flickr, SmugMug & Others plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's lightbox functionality in all versions up to, and including, 3.21 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied caption attribute.
