Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) issue in the Popup Maker plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 1.20.6. It occurs because the plugin does not properly sanitize or escape input in the 'title' parameter. Authenticated users with Contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious scripts that will execute whenever any user views the affected page.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability allows attackers with Contributor-level access to inject malicious scripts into pages, which can execute in the browsers of users who visit those pages. This can lead to unauthorized actions such as stealing user credentials, session hijacking, or performing actions on behalf of users without their consent.
