If you cannot patch yet, restrict contributor-level access to trusted users and monitor for unusual shortcode usage.
Description
The Easy Appointments WordPress plugin before 3.12.28 does not correctly validate shortcode input in one of its block-rendering actions, checking only the first tag of the supplied string against an allowlist while rendering the entire string, allowing users with contributor-level access to execute arbitrary registered shortcodes.
