AI Analysis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
AI Description<\/th>\nThe Slim SEO plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping in the ‘slim_seo_breadcrumbs’ shortcode. This allows authenticated users with at least contributor-level access to inject malicious scripts into web pages, which are then executed when the page is viewed by other users.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Description<\/h3>\n
\nThe Slim SEO \u2013 Fast & Automated WordPress SEO Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin’s slim_seo_breadcrumbs shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 4.5.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.\n<\/div>\n
