Stored Cross-Site Scripting in WP Booking Calendar Plugin from WordPress

CVE-2024-13323

What is CVE-2024-13323?

The WP Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks, primarily through the 'booking' shortcode. This vulnerability arises from inadequate input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can exploit this flaw to inject malicious web scripts into pages. Consequently, whenever a user accesses the compromised page, these scripts execute, potentially leading to unauthorized actions and data breaches.
