The EmbedPress – Embed PDF, YouTube, Google Docs, Vimeo, Wistia Videos, Audios, Maps and Any Documents in Gutenberg and Elementor plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via the hash parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.9.1 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping.
