PublishPress Future 4.10.1 - 4.10.5 - Contributor+ Stored XSS via 'wrapper' and 'dateformat' Shortcode Attributes

Description

The plugin does not enforce a safe HTML-element allowlist on a shortcode attribute and does not neutralise attacker-controlled text placed inside the resulting element, allowing users with the Contributor role and above to store JavaScript that executes in the session of any higher-privileged user who views the content.
