CVE-2021-24808
The BP Better Messages plugin prior to version 1.9.9.41 contains a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the 'subject' parameter. Although the plugin applies sanitize_text_field to this input, it fails to properly escape the value before rendering it within an HTML attribute, allowing attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute in a user's browser.
Based on public CVE data (MITRE/NVD).
