The WS Theme Addons plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's ws_weather shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.0.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.

EPSS estimates a 0.22% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
