CVE-2024-13815: CWE-94 Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') in Themographics Listingo
The The Listingo theme for WordPress is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution in all versions up to, and including, 3.2.7. This is due to the software allowing users to execute an action that does not properly validate a value before running do_shortcode. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-13815 is a code injection vulnerability (CWE-94) in the Listingo WordPress theme by Themographics. The issue arises because the theme improperly controls the generation of code by allowing execution of arbitrary shortcodes without proper validation.
