CVE-2024-35711 is a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Theme Freesia Event plugin affecting versions up to 1. 2. 2. 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 in a context with partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. The CVSS score is 6. 5, indicating a medium severity level. 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 (CVE-2024-35711) in Theme Freesia Event plugin versions up to 1.2.2 is a stored cross-site scripting (CWE-79) issue caused by improper input sanitization 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 vector indicates network attack vector, low attack complexity, requiring privileges and user interaction, with a scope change and partial impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary scripts in the context of users viewing the injected content, potentially leading to information disclosure, modification of displayed content, or disruption of availability. The impact is limited to partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability loss. There are no reports of active exploitation in the wild.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or remediation is currently available for this vulnerability. Users should monitor the vendor's advisory channels for updates. Until a fix is released, consider restricting user input capabilities or applying web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block suspicious input patterns related to XSS. Avoid granting unnecessary privileges to users who can submit content that is rendered by the plugin.
