WordPress · Wp Spell Check · CVE-2022-2658
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
WP Spell Check versions prior to 9.13
**Description**
The issue allows high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example in multisite setups. This is due to the plugin not escaping ignored words.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 9.13, update to version 9.13 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the ignored words feature until a patch is available.
