Does this affect you?

It affects Unknown All in One SEO. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

The All in One SEO WordPress plugin before 5.0.2.1 does not correctly determine which shortcodes are present in content derived from user input before deciding which ones to strip, allowing unauthenticated users to execute arbitrary shortcodes registered on the site. On sites upgraded from older versions the protection is disabled outright, making the issue reachable without any crafted input.
