Published on: Mar 30, 2024
Research Description: The Favorites plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'user_favorites' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.3.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes such as 'no_favorites'.

Affected versions: max 2.3.4.
Status: vulnerable
