Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.61.1

Description: The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in the SiteOrigin Blog Widget 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 that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Recommendations: For versions up to, and including, 1.61.1, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
