What is CVE-2024-6708?

The User Profile Builder WordPress plugin prior to version 3.12.2 lacks proper sanitization and escaping of certain parameters in its admin interface. This oversight permits Admin+ users to execute Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, potentially compromising the administrative functionality and data integrity of the application. It is crucial for site administrators to update to the latest version to mitigate these risks.

Affected Version(s)

User Profile Builder 0 < 3.12.2
