Description
The User Blocker plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSV Injection in versions up to, and including, 1.5.5. This allows administrator-level 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.
