Recommendation: Plan a near-term fix — a public PoC already exists.

The EventPress WordPress theme before 22.2 does not sanitize or escape the 'id' parameter in the eventpress_customizer_notify_dismiss_action AJAX handler before outputting it back in the response, allowing unauthenticated attackers to perform Reflected Cross-Site Scripting attacks against logged-in users.
