CVE-2022-0189
The WP RSS Aggregator WordPress plugin before 4.20 does not sanitise and escape the id parameter in the wprss_fetch_items_row_action AJAX action before outputting it back in the response, leading to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
