WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Secure Copy Content Protection and Content Locking < 5.0.2 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Shortcode Attribute

Description

The Secure Copy Content Protection and Content Locking plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'ays_block' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 5.0.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for 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.
