## Description

The Motors plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via user-submitted listing term names in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.128. This is due to insufficient input sanitization of term names used to generate listing titles and insufficient output escaping, as the generated titles were output in HTML attributes using wp_kses_post() and in the similar listings template without any escaping. 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 affected page.
