The Autoptimize WordPress plugin before 3.1.15, Clearfy Cache WordPress plugin before 2.4.2, Speed Optimizer WordPress plugin before 7.7.9 are vulnerable to unauthenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) due to a predictable replacement hash used during the HTML minification process and abusing a regular expression.
