Summary

The Simple Yearly Archive plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the `posttype` attribute of the `SimpleYearlyArchive` shortcode in all versions up to and including 2.2.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This allows authenticated attackers with Contributor-level access and above to inject arbitrary web scripts.

Injected scripts can execute in users' browsers, potentially leading to session theft, account takeover, or malware distribution.

Recommendation

Update the Simple Yearly Archive plugin to the latest version if available. Restrict content editing access to trusted users and consider using a web application firewall.
