Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Authenticated (contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Fullworks Meet My Team plugin <= 2.0.5 at WordPress.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Authenticated contributor+ users can inject malicious JavaScript via the Meet My Team plugin's input fields, which is stored in the database and executes when other users view the team page. This is a stored XSS vulnerability stemming from insufficient input sanitization and output encoding in the plugin.

MitigationUpdate the Fullworks Meet My Team plugin to a version beyond 2.0.5, which should include proper input validation and output escaping. If no update is available, implement sanitization functions like wp_kses() and esc_html() on user-supplied data before storage and display.

    Affected if Any user with contributor role or higher exists and can access the plugin admin area
  4. Inspect plugin input fields for stored XSS
    Using a contributor+ account, access the Meet My Team admin panel and add or edit a team member. Inject a test payload like <script>alert(1)</script> into input fields such as name, role, title, or bio. Save the entry, then view the public team page in the browser
