Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Typed JS versions up to, and including, 1.2.0

Description The Typed JS plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the typespeed parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. 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, 1.2.0, update to a version that includes proper input sanitization and output escaping for the typespeed parameter to prevent Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the typespeed parameter to minimize the risk of exploitation.
