Summary
The Joli Table Of Contents WordPress plugin before 2.8.1 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings before outputting them in an admin page, which could allow high-privilege users such as administrators to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed, for example in a multisite setup.
