WordPress is a free and open-source content management system written in
PHP and paired with a MariaDB database. Low-privileged authenticated users
(like author) in WordPress core are able to execute JavaScript/perform
stored XSS attack, which can affect high-privileged users. This has been
patched in WordPress version 5.8.3. Older affected versions are also fixed
via security release, that go back till 3.7.37. We strongly recommend that
you keep auto-updates enabled. There are no known workarounds for this
issue.
