Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
The vulnerability in the Hostel WordPress plugin before version 1.1.5.9 is due to improper sanitization and escaping of some settings. This flaw allows high privilege users, such as administrators, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks even if the unfiltered_html capability is disabled, for example in multisite WordPress setups.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can allow high privilege users to inject malicious scripts that are stored and executed in the context of the website. This can lead to unauthorized actions, data theft, session hijacking, or defacement of the website, potentially compromising the security and integrity of the affected WordPress site.
