Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Podlove Podcast Publisher plugin for WordPress version <= 4.1.25

Description The issue is related to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the Feed Name value due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with administrator-level access to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The issue only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered html has been disabled.

Recommendations For version <= 4.1.25, update to a version greater than 4.1.25 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Feed Name value to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, enabling unfiltered html or taking other measures to ensure proper input sanitization and output escaping can help mitigate the risk.
