Summary
The SureDash – Community, Courses & Member Dashboard plugin for WordPress up to version 1.10.3 is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'draweropenverposition' attribute. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access and above can inject arbitrary scripts that execute when a user accesses the injected page. The payload is stored in JSON within an HTML comment, and missing esc_attr() allows breaking out of the attribute.
Risk Assessment
Risk of user session hijacking, data theft, or malware distribution through script execution in visitors' browsers.
Recommendation
Update the SureDash plugin to the latest version. Restrict contributor permissions and regularly scan pages for malicious code.

Original NVD description (English source)
The SureDash – Community, Courses & Member Dashboard plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'draweropenverposition' Block/Shortcode Attribute in all versions up to, and including, 1.10.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. The injected payload is stored inside the block-delimiter HTML comment's JSON, which wp_kses_post does not neutralize on save, and is only interpolated into the rendered style attribute at display time without esc_attr() escaping, allowing a double-quote to break out of the attribute and introduce arbitrary HTML event handlers.
