Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions iChart – Easy Charts and Graphs plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.1.0

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the width 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, 2.1.0, update to a version that includes the necessary input sanitization and output escaping to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the width parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
