A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue exists, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. This is related to vectors involving a ratings shortcode and a unique ID.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.0.25, update to version 2.0.25 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the ratings shortcode until a patch is applied. Avoid using unique IDs in the affected shortcode to minimize the risk of exploitation.
