The Rank Math SEO plugin contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in its HowTo and FAQ widgets affecting versions 1.0.216 and earlier. Attackers with contributor-level permissions or higher can inject malicious scripts through user-supplied widget attributes because the plugin fails to properly sanitize inputs and escape outputs. When visitors view pages containing the compromised widgets, the injected scripts will execute in their browsers. The vulnerability was patched in version 1.0.217.
