The vulnerability was discovered in 2024 and assigned identifier CVE-2024-7758. The vulnerability affects the plugin's settings functionality, specifically impacting WordPress installations using this plugin (WPScan).

Technical details

The vulnerability stems from improper sanitization and escaping of certain plugin settings. This security flaw allows users with contributor-level privileges or higher to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, even in environments where the unfiltered_html capability is disabled, such as in multisite setups.

Impact

These scripts are then executed when other users view the affected pages, potentially leading to unauthorized access to user data or manipulation of the website's content (WPScan).
