Source description from Wordfence Intelligence, credited to theviper17y.

The The A WordPress Testimonial Plugin to Showcase Testimonial Slider, Testimonial Grid and More: Solid Testimonials plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.9. This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes.
