https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-10895

26 Nov 2024 — The Counter Up – Animated Number Counter & Milestone Showcase plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'lgx-counter' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.4.0 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/wp-counter-up/trunk/public/class-wp-counter-up-public.php#L318 • CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') •
