CVE-2024-11878 – Category Post Slider <= 1.4 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-11878

The Category Post Slider plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'category-post-slider' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 1.4 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. • https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/category-post-slider/tags/1.4/category-post-slider.php#L189 https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/id/e312e3eb-0da9-4ecf-aec6-86bfe08417f5?source=cve • CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') •
