Summary
The Molongui Authorship plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to stored DOM-based XSS via the 'comment' parameter (href attribute inside comment content) in all versions up to and including 5.2.12.
Risk Assessment
An unauthenticated attacker can inject arbitrary scripts that execute when a user visits an infected page, potentially leading to data theft, session hijacking, or malware distribution.
Recommendation
Update the Molongui Authorship plugin to the latest version that includes a security fix.

Original NVD description (English source)
The Molongui Authorship – Author Boxes, Guest Authors & Co-Authors for WordPress plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting via the 'comment (href attribute inside comment content)' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 5.2.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This is exploitable in the free build because the plugin's author-filter rewriter never appends the ?m_bm=true marker to its own anchors (Plugin::has_pro() returns false), meaning every href the byline script selects and rewrites is fully attacker-controlled.
