What fixes it

A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

The EmbedPress WordPress plugin before 4.6.7 does not sanitise and escape one of its Elementor widget settings before outputting it into an HTML attribute, which could allow users with the Contributor role or above to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute when the affected content is viewed.
