CVE-2025-5532

MEDIUM

WordPress - Faculty, Staff & Student Directory Plugin 1.9.0 - XSS

Title source: llm

Description

The Campus Directory – Faculty, Staff & Student Directory Plugin for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'emd_mb_meta' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.9.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
