CVE-2024-34390: CWE-79 Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in AddonMaster Post Grid Master
CVE-2024-34390 is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the AddonMaster Post Grid Master plugin affecting versions up to 3. 4. 8. The vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of input during web page generation, allowing an attacker with low privileges and requiring user interaction to execute malicious scripts. The CVSS score is 6. 5, indicating a medium severity with potential impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability in AddonMaster Post Grid Master (up to version 3.4.8) is a stored cross-site scripting (CWE-79) issue caused by improper input neutralization during web page generation. An attacker with low privileges can inject malicious scripts that execute when other users view the affected content, potentially leading to partial compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, user interaction, and a scope change.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of the victim's browser, potentially leading to information disclosure, session hijacking, or other impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The CVSS vector indicates partial impacts to all three security properties. No known active exploitation has been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, consider restricting user input capabilities and applying web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block malicious payloads related to XSS in the affected plugin. Monitor vendor channels for updates.
