Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in FooGallery Plugin for WordPress

CVE-2024-12119

What is CVE-2024-12119?

The FooGallery plugin for WordPress is susceptible to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability through the default_gallery_title_size parameter, affecting all versions up to and including 2.4.29. Due to inadequate input sanitization and output escaping processes, authenticated users with roles such as gallery and album creators can exploit this flaw. Attackers can inject malicious web scripts into webpage elements, which will execute automatically when users access an affected page. This poses a significant risk to site visitors and could lead to unauthorized exposure of sensitive user data.
