This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. Successful exploitation requires that an administrator has added and configured the Contact Email custom field to render on the public single-listing output page, and that the administrator subsequently approves the attacker's submitted listing."
