Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Rank Math SEO with AI Best SEO Tools plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.217

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, specifically via the textAlign parameter. This allows authenticated attackers with contributor-level permissions and above to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages, which will execute when a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.0.217, update to a version that includes the necessary input sanitization and output escaping fixes to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the textAlign parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
