CVE-2024-11360: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in husobj Page Parts
The Page Parts plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting due to the use of remove_query_arg without appropriate escaping on the URL in all versions up to, and including, 1.4.3. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that execute if they can successfully trick a user into performing an action such as clicking on a link.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-11360 is a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability in the husobj Page Parts WordPress plugin. The issue stems from the use of remove_query_arg on URLs without proper escaping, allowing injection of malicious scripts. This affects all versions up to and including 1.4.3. The vulnerability requires user interaction (clicking a crafted link) and can be exploited by unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of the victim's browser session.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of a victim's browser, potentially leading to information disclosure or session hijacking. The vulnerability does not allow direct system compromise or denial of service. The CVSS vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, user interaction required, and impacts confidentiality and integrity with no impact on availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, users should consider disabling the Page Parts plugin or applying manual code review and escaping of URL parameters to mitigate reflected XSS risks. Avoid clicking on suspicious links that may exploit this vulnerability.
