Sites running the Directorist WordPress plugin before 8.11.1 that let registered users submit listings. The flaw allows a listing author to bypass admin moderation, so the impact is limited to unreviewed content appearing on the site. Sites that do not accept user submissions, or that run 8.11.1 or later, are not affected.
