Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FiboSearch WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.17.0

Description The issue is related to the FiboSearch WordPress plugin, which does not properly sanitise and escape some of its settings. This could allow high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.17.0, update to version 1.17.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the unfiltered html capability to minimize the risk of exploitation.
