An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24481 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Any Hostname. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24481/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24481/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24481","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24481/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24481","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3xf9-4gwf-w55x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated high-privilege users can inject stored XSS payloads via the Allowed hosts setting in the Any Hostname WordPress plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"any_hostname","vendor":"any_hostname_project"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Any Hostname WordPress plugin through 1.0.6 does not sanitise or escape its \"Allowed hosts\" setting, leading to an authenticated stored XSS issue as high privilege users are able to set XSS payloads in it","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Any Hostname \u003c= 1.0.6 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24481","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Related Posts for WordPress \u003c= 2.0.4 - Authenticated Stored XSS \u0026 XFS","id":"CVE-2021-24482"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Event Geek \u003c= 2.5.2 - Stored Cross-site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24480"},"products":["Any Hostname"],"published":"2021-08-02","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Authenticated high-privilege users can inject stored XSS payloads via the Allowed hosts setting in the Any Hostname WordPress plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24481/"}
