Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the IRM Newsroom plugin for WordPress. It occurs in the 'irmeventlist' shortcode due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. Authenticated users with contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts that execute whenever any user views the affected page.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability allows attackers with contributor-level access to inject arbitrary scripts into pages, which can execute in the context of other users visiting those pages. This can lead to theft of user credentials, session hijacking, defacement, or other malicious actions impacting the website's users and integrity.
