CVE-2024-9548

What is CVE-2024-9548?

The SlimStat Analytics plugin for WordPress is susceptible to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability through the resource parameter. This issue arises from inadequate sanitization of input and improper output escaping during the logging of visitor requests, affecting all versions up to and including 5.2.6. As a result, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this flaw to embed arbitrary web scripts into pages. These scripts are executed whenever a user accesses a compromised page, potentially leading to a range of security problems, including session hijacking and data theft.
