Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions BA Book Everything plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.6.8

Description The issue arises from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes, such as classes, in the plugin's 'all-items' shortcode. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages. These scripts will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For BA Book Everything plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.6.8, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'all-items' shortcode or limiting the ability to input custom attributes like classes to prevent arbitrary script injection.
