Technical details

A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability exists in the 'seopress_google_analytics_matomo_id' parameter due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. An authenticated attacker with subscriber-level access or higher can inject arbitrary JavaScript, which persists in the database and executes in the context of any user accessing the affected page. The attack requires the administrator to have delegated Analytics management capability to the Subscriber role via the plugin's Advanced > Security settings.
