Custom Content Shortcode < 4.0.2 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Published Mar 7, 2022 CVSS 3.1 · 5.4 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The Custom Content Shortcode WordPress plugin before 4.0.2 does not escape custom fields before outputting them, which could allow Contributor+ (v < 4.0.1) or Admin+ (v < 4.0.2) users to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html is disallowed. Please note that such attack is still possible by admin+ in single site blogs by default (but won't be when the unfiltered_html is disallowed)
