The admin-settings path in WP-Google-Ad-Manager.php stores values without sufficient input sanitization and emits them without output escaping. Exploitation requires administrator privileges and is limited to multisite installations or sites where unfiltered_html is disabled, allowing injected scripts to run when affected pages are viewed.
