CVE-2021-24180
The Related Posts for WordPress plugin before version 2.0.4 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the 'lang' GET parameter on the post editing page. The flaw stems from insufficient validation of user input combined with missing output encoding. Attackers can exploit this by crafting a malicious URL that, when clicked by users with post editing permissions, executes arbitrary JavaScript in their browsers.
