Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: WPFront User Role Editor WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.2.1.11184

Description: The issue is related to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting problem. It occurs because the changes-saved parameter is not properly sanitised and escaped before being outputted back in the admin dashboard. This allows for potential malicious script execution.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 3.2.1.11184, update to version 3.2.1.11184 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the admin dashboard to minimize the risk of exploitation.
