Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP SHAPES plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.0.0

Description The issue is related to stored Cross-Site Scripting via SVG file uploads due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Author-level access or higher to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses the SVG file.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 1.0.0, update to a version higher than 1.0.0 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to SVG file uploads for users with Author-level access and above until a patch is available. Avoid using the WP SHAPES plugin for uploading SVG files until the issue is resolved.
