The Pods – Custom Content Types and Fields plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Remote Code Exxecution via shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.0.10 (with the exception of 2.7.31.2, 2.8.23.2, 2.9.19.2).
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.28%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
