Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Currency Converter Widget ⚡ PRO plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.6

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting, which occurs due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes in the plugin's 'currency-converter-widget-pro' shortcode. 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, 1.0.6, update to a version higher than 1.0.6 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'currency-converter-widget-pro' shortcode until a patch is available. Avoid using user-supplied attributes in the affected shortcode until the issue is resolved.
