Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions StreamWeasels YouTube Integration plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.3.6

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'sw-youtube-embed' 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, 1.3.6, update to a version higher than 1.3.6 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the sw-youtube-embed shortcode until a patch is available. Restrict access to pages that use the sw-youtube-embed shortcode to minimize the risk of exploitation.
