What is CVE-2024-12524?

The Clinked Client Portal plugin for WordPress is subjected to a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability through the 'clinked-login-button' shortcode. This vulnerability arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping on user-provided attributes, allowing authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher to inject malicious web scripts into pages.
