Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Theater for WordPress plugin versions up to, and including, 0.18.6.2

Description The issue arises from the use of add query arg without proper escaping on the URL, leading to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts into pages that execute when a user performs a specific action, such as clicking on a link.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 0.18.6.2, update to a version later than 0.18.6.2 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to potentially vulnerable pages or links to minimize the risk of exploitation.
