NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream wordpress-shibboleth package and not the wordpress-shibboleth package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

The shibboleth_login_form function in shibboleth.php in the Shibboleth plugin before 1.8 for WordPress is prone to an XSS vulnerability due to improper use of add_query_arg().
