CVE-2021-24922
The Pixel Cat WordPress plugin before 2.6.2 does not have CSRF check when saving its settings, and did not sanitise as well as escape some of them, which could allow attacker to make a logged in admin change them and perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.53%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
