Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Content Views – Post Grid & Filter, Recent Posts, Category Posts, & More plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 3.7.0

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Widget Post Overlay block due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 3.7.0, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Widget Post Overlay block to minimize the risk of exploitation.
