Until an official fix is available, restrict Contributor-level and higher user privileges to trusted users only. Consider disabling or limiting use of the wprm-recipe-roundup-item shortcode if possible. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.
Description
The WP Recipe Maker plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'name' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 10.2.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes in the wprm-recipe-roundup-item shortcode. 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.
