Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Contests by Rewards Fuel plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 2.0.64

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting 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 via the update rewards fuel api key parameter. These scripts will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 2.0.64, update to a version higher than 2.0.64 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the update rewards fuel api key parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
