Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions E2Pdf WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.20.20

Description The issue allows high privilege users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, due to the plugin not sanitizing and escaping some of its settings.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.20.20, update to version 1.20.20 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's settings for high privilege users until the update is applied.
