AI-GeneratedThe Reviews and Rating – Google Reviews plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting, allowing authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to inject malicious scripts into web pages.

WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of exploitation.
Original NVD Description
The Reviews and Rating – Google Reviews plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 5.10. This is due to the wp_display() shortcode handler, used by multiple shortcodes, allowing attacker-controlled html_tags values to define raw HTML tags and then embedding untrusted vicinity content inside those tags. 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.
