Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Easy Post Types plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.4.4

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via post meta due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.4.4, update to a version higher than 1.4.4 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting contributor-level and above permissions to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, ensure proper input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes to prevent arbitrary web script injections.
