Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: WordPress (affected versions not specified)

Description: The issue is due to a lack of proper checks, allowing lower-privileged roles to upload .css and .js files to arbitrary directories. This enables authenticated attackers with Subscriber-level access and above, granted permissions by an administrator, to upload .css and .js files to any directory within the WordPress root directory, potentially leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting. The Advanced File Manager Shortcodes plugin must be installed to exploit this issue.

Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
