CVE-2022-1298

The Tabs WordPress plugin before 2.2.8 does not sanitise and escape Tab descriptions, which could allow high privileged users with a role as low as editor to perform Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.59%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
