Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ShortPixel Adaptive Images WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.6.3

Description The issue is related to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting problem. It occurs because a parameter is not properly sanitised and escaped before being outputted back in the page. This could be exploited against high-privilege users, such as administrators.

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.6.3, update to version 3.6.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the vulnerable parameter in the affected page until the issue is resolved.
