Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: EZ SQL Reports Shortcode Widget and DB Backup plugin for WordPress versions up to, and including, 5.25.11

Description: The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's SQLREPORT 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, 5.25.11, update to a version that addresses the insufficient input sanitization and output escaping issue to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the SQLREPORT shortcode for users with contributor-level access and above until a patch is available.
