Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Product Slider For WooCommerce Lite WordPress plugin versions 1.1.7 and earlier

Description The issue is related to the plugin not validating and escaping some of its shortcode attributes before outputting them back in a page/post where the shortcode is embedded. This could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.

Recommendations For versions 1.1.7 and earlier, consider updating to a newer version that addresses this issue, as no specific fix is provided for these versions. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of shortcodes to minimize the risk of exploitation.
