The AI Engine: Chatbots, Generators, Assistants, GPT 4 and more! WordPress plugin (tigroumeow) suffers from a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability (CWE-79) identified as CVE-2024-0378. This vulnerability affects all versions up to 2.2.0 when discussion tracking is enabled. It is caused by insufficient sanitization and escaping of AI chat data inputs, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts that execute in the context of users visiting the injected pages. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and impacts on confidentiality and integrity but not availability. No patch or vendor advisory is currently provided, and no known exploits have been observed.

Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users visiting affected pages, potentially leading to information disclosure and integrity impacts such as session hijacking or content manipulation. Availability is not affected. The vulnerability requires discussion tracking to be enabled, which may limit exposure. No known exploits in the wild have been reported to date.

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider disabling discussion tracking to prevent exploitation. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply patches promptly once available. Avoid exposing the plugin to untrusted users or inputs where possible.
