Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Website Content in Page or Post WordPress plugin versions prior to 2024.04.09

Description The issue concerns the Website Content in Page or Post WordPress plugin, which does not properly validate and escape certain shortcode attributes before outputting them in a page or post. This could allow users with the contributor role or higher to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2024.04.09, update to version 2024.04.09 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of shortcodes to minimize the risk of exploitation.
