As the unfiltered_html capability is not available to administrators on multisite (or where DISALLOW_UNFILTERED_HTML is set), this leads to Stored Cross-Site Scripting.","published":"2026-10-12T06:16:58.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-19T22:10:00.000Z","status":"Deferred","sourceIdentifier":"contact@wpscan.com","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":3.5,"severity":"LOW","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-79"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00145,"percentile":0.03753,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[{"date":"2026-10-12","score":0.00166,"percentile":0.05394}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.14%).
