Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP on AWS plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.2.1

Description The issue is related to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via $ POST data 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.

Recommendations For WP on AWS plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.2.1, update to a version later than 5.2.1 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the plugin's functionality that processes $ POST data until a patch is available. Avoid using the plugin's features that rely on user input until the issue is resolved.
