Description
The Directorist plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSV Injection in versions up to, and including, 7.7.1. This allows editor-level and above attackers to embed untrusted input into exported CSV files, which can result in code execution when these files are downloaded and opened on a local system with a vulnerable configuration.
