The vulnerability was identified on March 28, 2023, and publicly disclosed on June 2, 2023.

The vulnerability has been assigned a CVSS v3.1 base score of 4.8 (Medium) by NIST with a vector string of CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, while Patchstack assessed it with a score of 5.9 (Medium). The vulnerability is classified under CWE-79 (Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation) (NVD, WPScan).
The vulnerability allows malicious actors with administrative privileges to inject malicious scripts, including redirects, advertisements, and other HTML payloads into the website. These injected scripts would then be executed when guests visit the affected site (Patchstack).
The vulnerability has been patched in version 1.2 of the Call Now Accessibility Button plugin. Site administrators are advised to update to version 1.2 or later to remove the vulnerability. It's worth noting that the software appears to be abandoned, as it hasn't been updated for over a year, and users should consider replacing it with an alternative solution (Patchstack).
