What is CVE-2024-6335?

The Tracking Code Manager plugin for WordPress versions prior to 2.3.0 is susceptible to Stored Cross-Site Scripting due to inadequate sanitization and escaping of various settings. This vulnerability enables high-privilege users, including administrators, to exploit the plugin for XSS attacks, even in environments where the unfiltered_html capability is restricted, such as multisite configurations. Proper mitigation requires updating to the latest version to close this security loophole.

Affected Version(s)

Tracking Code Manager 0 < 2.3.0

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
