CVE-2024-6158

Exploit

Category Posts Widget <= 4.9.16 & Pro < 4.9.13 - Authenticated (Admin+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting

The Category Posts Widget WordPress plugin before 4.9.17, term-and-category-based-posts-widget WordPress plugin before 4.9.13 does not validate and escape some of its "Category Posts" widget settings before outputting them back in a page/post where the Widget is embed, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)
Mögliche Gegenmaßnahme
Category Posts Widget: Update to version 4.9.17, or a newer patched version
Terms and Category Based Posts Widget: Update to version 4.9.13, or a newer patched version
