WordPress Plugin Vulnerabilities

Amr Users < 4.59.4 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting

Proof of Concept

Put the following payload in the "Name of list" field in the User Lists > Overview & tools page (/wp-admin/admin.php?page=ameta-admin-overview.php): " style=animation-name:rotation onanimationstart=alert(/XSS/)//

The XSS will be trigged in all backend pages
