AI-GeneratedThe MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress plugin is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in the form response message post meta fields.

WordPress site administrators using this plugin should prioritize patching to mitigate potential exploitation risks.
Original NVD Description
The MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the form response message post meta fields (e.g., 'text_subscribed', 'text_error') in all versions up to, and including, 4.12.0 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Author-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
