Summary

A vulnerability exists in the Simple:Press Forum WordPress plugin prior to version 6.10.11 due to inadequate sanitization and escaping of user input. This flaw allows an attacker to inject malicious scripts that could be executed in the context of a user's browser, leading to unauthorized access and potential data theft. The improper handling of parameters significantly raises the risk of reflected cross-site scripting attacks, making it crucial for users to upgrade to the latest version to mitigate this risk.
