How to fix?

Upgrade wpglobus/wpglobus to version 1.9.7 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to the improper handling of the wpglobus_option[more_languages] parameter in the wp-admin/options.php file. An attacker can inject malicious scripts or perform unauthorized actions on behalf of legitimate users by crafting a malicious request.
