A persistent Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability has been encountered in
the Admin Custom Login WordPress plugin. This issue allows an attacker

session tokens, or performing arbitrary actions on their behalf. There
is an option in this plugin to add custom style on the login page of
wordpress. If you simply close the </style> tags you are able to put
malicious script which will be executed on the login page.
