Does this affect you?

It affects Unknown Advanced File Manager. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.16%, higher than 5% of scored CVEs.

The Advanced File Manager WordPress plugin before 6.0.0 does not correctly determine whether a stored file is an SVG before sanitising it, allowing users granted file-manager access by an administrator to store a file containing script that is not stripped and that runs in the browser of anyone who opens it, including an administrator.
