Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP 404 Auto Redirect to Similar Post plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.3

Description The issue is related to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the request parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.0.3, consider disabling the plugin until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the request parameter to minimize the risk of injection of arbitrary web scripts.
