Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions jAlbum Bridge plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.0.15

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the ar parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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, 2.0.15, consider disabling the ar parameter until a patch is available to prevent exploitation. Restrict access to pages that may have been injected with malicious scripts to minimize the risk of execution. Update to a version later than 2.0.15 when available, as it is expected to include fixes for the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issues.
