## Description

The Dynamic Team Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to CSS Injection via the 'bg_color' and 'social_color' attributes of the [team_manager] shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.6.8, due to insufficient validation of the supplied color values, which are printed inside an inline <style> block. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary CSS rules into pages that render the shortcode. The injected rules can change how the page looks or overlay deceptive content for visitors.
