Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Control horas plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.1

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'ch registro' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes, such as ch registro. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page, potentially through API endpoints like "/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php" with vulnerable parameters like shortcode.

Recommendations For Control horas plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.1, update to a version higher than 1.0.1 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the ch registro shortcode until a patch is available. Restrict access to pages that use the ch registro shortcode to minimize the risk of exploitation.
