Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions WP Video Lightbox WordPress plugin versions prior to 1.9.3
Description The issue exists due to the lack of protection of the webpage structure, allowing a remote attacker to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks. Users with a role as low as contributor can exploit this issue by not escaping the attributes of the plugin's shortcodes.
Recommendations For versions prior to 1.9.3, update to version 1.9.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the plugin's shortcodes to minimize the risk of exploitation.
