Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Featured Posts Scroll plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.25

Description The issue is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function, making it possible for unauthenticated attackers to update settings and inject malicious web scripts via a forged request. This can be achieved if the attackers can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.25, update the plugin to the latest version to mitigate the risks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's settings to minimize the risk of exploitation.
