Summary
The WP Job Portal plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.4. This is due to the plugin explicitly whitelisting the `<script>` tag in its `WPJOBPORTAL_ALLOWED_TAGS` configuration and using insufficient input sanitization when saving job descriptions. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Editor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts into job description fields via the job creation/editing interface. These scripts will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page, enabling session hijacking, credential theft, and other malicious activities.This only impacts multi-site installations, or those with unfiltered_html disabled.

Fencer Vulns keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
