CVE-2021-24331 describes a stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Smooth Scroll Page Up/Down Buttons WordPress plugin prior to version 1.4, affecting the smooth_scroll_page_up/down_buttons project. This medium-severity vulnerability (CVSS 4.8) allows high-privilege users, such as administrators, to inject XSS payloads into plugin settings due to insufficient server-side input validation. While it requires user interaction (UI:R) and high privileges (PR:H), a successful exploit could lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts (C:L, I:L). There is no evidence of active exploitation, publicly available exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
