Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions The Stop Spammers Security | Block Spam Users, Comments, Forms WordPress plugin versions prior to 2023
Description The issue is related to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting problem. It occurs because various parameters are not properly sanitised and escaped before being outputted back in admin dashboard pages. This could be exploited against high-privilege users, such as admins.
Recommendations For versions prior to 2023, update to a version released in 2023 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to admin dashboard pages to minimize the risk of exploitation.
