WordPress · Yop Poll · CVE-2021-24885
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
YOP Poll WordPress plugin versions prior to 6.1.2
Description:
The issue is related to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting problem. It occurs because the `perpage` parameter is not properly escaped before being outputted back in an attribute. This allows for potential malicious script injection.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 6.1.2, update to version 6.1.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `perpage` parameter in the affected attribute to minimize the risk of exploitation.
