CVE-2022-4471

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions YARPP WordPress plugin versions prior to 5.30.3

Description The issue concerns a lack of validation and escaping of certain shortcode attributes in the YARPP WordPress plugin, which could allow users with the contributor role and above to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
