CVE-2024-6270 – Community Events < 1.5.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2024-6270

The Community Events WordPress plugin before 1.5.1 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup) The Community Events plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via admin settings in all versions up to, and including, 1.5 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with administrator-level permissions and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. This only affects multi-site installations and installations where unfiltered_html has been disabled. • https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/3d0a6edc-61e8-42fb-8b93-ef083146bd9c • CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') •
