The Rating Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's shortcode(s) in versions up to, and including, 3.2.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers with contributor-level and above permissions to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

CVSS

Score:6.5

Severity:Medium

Version: 3.2.0

There is a patch available in v3.2.1 and we strongly recommend you update to this version as soon as possible.
