Official description
The Appointment Booking Calendar — Simply Schedule Appointments Booking Plugin plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's ssa_admin_upcoming_appointments, ssa_admin_upcoming_appointments, and ssa_past_appointments shortcodes in all versions up to, and including, 1.6.8.30 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes.
