Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Lazy load videos and sticky control plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.0.0

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the plugin's 'lazy-load-videos-and-sticky-control' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. 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.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.0.0, update to a version higher than 3.0.0 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'lazy-load-videos-and-sticky-control' shortcode to prevent exploitation.
