Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Photo Gallery by 10Web plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.8.18

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via widgets due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows authenticated attackers with administrator-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. It can also be exploited with a contributor-level permission when using a page builder plugin.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.8.18, update to a version higher than 1.8.18 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the widget functionality to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, restrict the use of user-supplied attributes in widgets until a patch is available.
