Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Community by PeepSo plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 6.4.6.2

Description The issue is related to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link. The filter parameter is specifically vulnerable to this type of attack.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 6.4.6.2, avoid using the filter parameter in sensitive operations until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to pages that utilize the filter parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
