An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24496 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Community Events. 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-2021-24496/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24496/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24496","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24496/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24496","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9g3p-ghhv-vpv9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Reflected XSS in Community Events plugin allows attackers to execute scripts in admin context via unsanitized GET parameters.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"community_events","vendor":"community_events_project"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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 Community Events WordPress plugin before 1.4.8 does not sanitise, validate or escape its importrowscount and successimportcount GET parameters before outputting them back in an admin page, leading to a reflected Cross-Site Scripting issue which will be executed in the context of a logged in administrator","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":"Community Event \u003c 1.4.8 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24496","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Giveaway \u003c= 1.2.2 - Authenticated SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24497"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Marmoset Viewer \u003c 1.9.3 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24495"},"products":["Community Events"],"published":"2021-08-02","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-3313","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-09-07"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Community Events \u003c 1.5 - Event Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2024-6271","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-22"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Community Events \u003c 1.5.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-6270","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-05"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"WordPress Community Events Plugin \u003c= 1.4.8 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2022-44742","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-23"}],"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":"Reflected XSS in Community Events plugin allows attackers to execute scripts in admin context via unsanitized GET parameters.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24496/"}
