AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Top Bar WordPress plugin versions prior to 3.0.5

Description The issue allows high privilege users, such as admins, to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even when the unfiltered html capability is disallowed, for example, in multisite setups. This could potentially expose sites to stealthy JavaScript backdoors via Stored XSS.

Recommendations For versions prior to 3.0.5, update the Top Bar WordPress plugin to version 3.0.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the plugin's settings to minimize the risk of exploitation.
