CVE-2024-2475

CVE-2024-2475 describes a Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Media Library Assistant plugin for WordPress, affecting all versions up to and including 3.13. This flaw stems from insufficient input sanitization and output escaping of user-supplied attributes within the plugin's shortcodes. Authenticated attackers with contributor-level access or higher can inject malicious web scripts into pages, which then execute when other users view those compromised pages. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.4 (Medium), indicating a network-based attack with low attack complexity, requiring user interaction, and resulting in low impact to confidentiality and integrity. Its EPSS score is very low, suggesting a minimal likelihood of exploitation. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, nor are there publicly available exploit modules in Metasploit or Nuclei, or entries in ExploitDB. The vulnerability has received no community discussion or media coverage, which is typical for the vast majority of CVEs.
