CVE-2026-6972: SKT Skill Bar chart_size shortcode attribute permits stored XSS

SKT Skill Bar through 2.6 lets a Contributor store an attacker-controlled chart_size attribute in the skillwrapper shortcode. The plugin concatenates that value directly into an inline style block without sufficient sanitization or escaping, allowing stored JavaScript to execute whenever a visitor opens the affected page. The CNA does not disclose the rendering function or required breakout encoding.
