The vulnerability affects the plugin's shortcode functionality and stems from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes (NVD).

Technical details

The vulnerability is classified as a Cross-Site Scripting (CWE-79) issue with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 5.4 (Medium) using the vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N. The vulnerability requires an authenticated user with contributor-level permissions or higher to exploit. The core issue lies in the improper handling of user-supplied attributes in shortcodes (NVD, Wordfence).
