Stored XSS in AYS Pro Secure Copy Content Protection and Content Locking before 5.1.5 allows remote authenticated users to run scripts. The settings handler stores the ays_sccp_sub_icon_image value without sanitizing it and later renders the value without output escaping. Administrator privileges and a later page view are required, including on multisite installations where unfiltered_html is disabled.
