Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Groups plugin for WordPress versions prior to 3.10.1

Description The Groups plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting through the 'groups group info' shortcode. This is due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping of user-provided attributes. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious web scripts into pages. These scripts will execute when a user accesses the compromised page.

Recommendations Update the Groups plugin to version 3.10.1 or later.
