It occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitise and escape a parameter before outputting it back on the page. This flaw leads to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability, which can be exploited to execute malicious scripts in the context of users viewing the page, particularly targeting high privilege users such as administrators.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :

This can lead to unauthorized actions such as stealing session cookies, defacing the website, or performing actions on behalf of the admin user, potentially compromising the security and integrity of the affected WordPress site.
