What is CVE-2024-3692?
The Gutenverse WordPress plugin, when running versions before 1.9.1, suffers from a vulnerability related to inadequate validation of the htmlTag option within various blocks. This lack of validation allows users with a contributor role and above to inject malicious scripts, potentially leading to Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks. This risk emphasizes the importance of regular updates and rigorous security practices for WordPress plugins to mitigate exploitation risks.
