CVE-2021-24489 is a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting the Request a Quote WordPress plugin prior to version 2.3.9. This flaw allows authenticated attackers, even those without unfiltered_html capabilities, to inject malicious scripts due to insufficient sanitization of administrative settings. Rated as Medium severity (CVSS 4.8), it requires high privileges and user interaction, potentially leading to limited impact on confidentiality and integrity. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or inclusion in CISA's KEV catalog, despite some community discussion and media coverage primarily focused on broader Intel patch updates.
