Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Thanh Toán Quét Mã QR Code Tự Động – MoMo, ViettelPay, VNPay và 40 ngân hàng Việt Nam plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.1 due to incorrect use of the wp_kses_allowed_html function, which allows the 'onclick' attribute for certain HTML elements without sufficient restriction or context validation. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The Thanh Toán QR Code payment plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in versions up to 2.0.1 due to incorrect use of wp_kses_allowed_html that permits the dangerous 'onclick' attribute without proper validation. Unauthenticated attackers can inject malicious scripts that execute whenever users access injected pages.

MitigationUpdate the plugin to version 2.0.2 or later which should properly restrict or remove the 'onclick' attribute from allowed HTML, and audit existing content for any injected XSS payloads.
