Descriptions
The Chatbot with ChatGPT WordPress plugin before 2.4.5 does not sanitise and escape user inputs, which could allow unauthenticated users to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks against admins
The Chatbot with ChatGPT WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
