CVE-2022-4479

The Table of Contents Plus plugin for WordPress contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability affecting versions 2106 and earlier, where the 'class' parameter in the [toc] shortcode and the 'label' parameter in the [sitemap_pages] shortcode fail to properly sanitize and escape user input. Attackers with administrator privileges can exploit this flaw to inject malicious scripts that execute when other users view the affected pages, though this vulnerability only impacts multisite WordPress installations or those with the unfiltered_html capability disabled.
