Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Subpage List plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.3.3

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'subpages' 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 Subpage List plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 1.3.3, update to a version later than 1.3.3 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'subpages' shortcode to minimize the risk of exploitation.
