CVE-2024-1320: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in metagauss EventPrime – Events Calendar, Bookings and Tickets
The EventPrime – Events Calendar, Bookings and Tickets plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the 'offline_status' parameter in all versions up to, and including, 3.4.3 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The EventPrime plugin for WordPress suffers from a stored XSS vulnerability due to improper neutralization of input in the 'offline_status' parameter. This flaw allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary JavaScript code into pages generated by the plugin, which executes in the context of users visiting those pages. The vulnerability affects all versions up to and including 3.4.3. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5 (medium), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, and impacts on confidentiality and integrity but not availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could lead to the execution of arbitrary scripts in the browsers of users viewing the injected pages, potentially resulting in theft of user credentials, session hijacking, or other malicious actions impacting confidentiality and integrity. However, the attack requires no privileges or user interaction, increasing risk. There is no indication of impact on system 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 or restricting access to the vulnerable plugin functionality or applying custom input sanitization and output escaping as a temporary mitigation. Monitor the vendor's communications for updates on patches or official fixes.
