This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Successful exploitation requires user registration to be open on the site, and script execution is triggered when an Administrator subsequently runs the plugin\u0027s user-spam scan and views the resulting Non-checkable users or Spam users tab \u2014 the plugin\u0027s own documented workflow."
