What is CVE-2024-12710?

The WP-Appbox plugin for WordPress has a vulnerability that exposes it to reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks through the 'page' parameter. This issue arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping in versions up to and including 4.5.3. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can potentially inject malicious web scripts into pages. If users are tricked into clicking on specially crafted links, these scripts may execute in their browsers, compromising user sessions or capturing sensitive information.

Affected Version(s)

WP-Appbox * <= 4.5.3
