Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Reading progressbar WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.3.1

Description The Reading progressbar WordPress plugin does not properly sanitise and escape certain settings. This could allow users with high privileges, such as administrators, to carry out Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. This is possible even when the unfiltered html capability is disabled, for example, in a multisite setup. Stored XSS occurs when malicious scripts are persistently stored on the target server, allowing them to be delivered to other users who access the affected content.

Recommendations Update the Reading progressbar WordPress plugin to version 1.3.1 or later.
