Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Rank Math SEO with AI Best SEO Tools plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.218

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

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.0.218, update to a patched version immediately to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the id parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
