Until an official fix is available, users should consider disabling or restricting access to the vulnerable plugin or applying manual input validation and output escaping for the affected parameters. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once released.
Description
The CM Custom Reports plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the 'date_from' and 'date_to' parameters in all versions up to, and including, 1.2.7 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
