Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions GamiPress – Link plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.1.4

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's gamipress link shortcode 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, 1.1.4, update to a version higher than 1.1.4 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the gamipress link shortcode until a patch is available.
