CVE-2021-47927
WordPress Plugin WP Symposium Pro 2021.10 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious scripts by exploiting insufficient sanitization of the forum name parameter.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.19%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
