Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Photo Album Plus plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 8.8.05.003

Description The issue is related to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages. This can be achieved by tricking a user into performing an action, such as clicking on a link, via the wppa-tab parameter.

Recommendations For versions up to, and including, 8.8.05.003, consider disabling the wppa-tab parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
