What is CVE-2025-11268?

The Strong Testimonials plugin for WordPress is susceptible to an arbitrary shortcode execution vulnerability. This issue arises from inadequate validation and sanitization of user-submitted testimonials, allowing unauthenticated attackers to introduce malicious shortcodes. If an administrator previews or publishes a crafted testimonial, this can result in unauthorized code being executed, posing significant risks to the site's integrity and security.
