Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in Listamester Plugin for WordPress

CVE-2024-13659

What is CVE-2024-13659?

The Listamester plugin for WordPress is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to improper input sanitization and output escaping on user-supplied attributes used in the 'listamester' shortcode. This vulnerability allows authenticated attackers, with at least contributor-level access, to inject arbitrary scripts into web pages. The injected scripts execute whenever a user accesses the compromised page, potentially leading to unauthorized actions and data breaches. Users are urged to update to the latest version to mitigate this security risk.
