Summary
The Orbit Fox: Duplicate Page, Menu Icons, SVG Support, Cookie Notice, Custom Fonts & More WordPress plugin before 3.0.8 does not sanitize uploaded SVG files when its SVG upload feature is enabled, allowing authenticated users with the upload capability (Author and above by default, without the unfiltered_html capability) to upload SVG files containing JavaScript that executes in the site context when the file is viewed, leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting.
