Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WZ Followed Posts – Display what visitors are reading plugin for WordPress versions up to and including 3.1.0

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'wfp' 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 3.1.0, update to a version higher than 3.1.0 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the 'wfp' shortcode to minimize the risk of exploitation.
