Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-24517 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Stop Spammers Security | Block Spam Users, Comments, Forms. 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-2021-24517/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24517/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24517","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24517/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24517","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fp6q-wmwj-3m9p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can inject stored XSS payloads into plugin settings, potentially leading to code execution in the context of other users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"stop_spammers","vendor":"trumani"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/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 Stop Spammers Security | Block Spam Users, Comments, Forms WordPress plugin before 2021.18 does not escape some of its settings, allowing high privilege users such as admin to set Cross-Site Scripting payloads in them even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed","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":"Stop Spammers Security \u003c 2021.18 - Authenticated Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24517","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WPFront Notification Bar \u003c 2.0.0.07176 - Authenticated Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24518"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"PlanSo Forms \u003c= 2.6.3 - Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24516"},"products":["Stop Spammers Security | Block Spam Users, Comments, Forms"],"published":"2021-09-06","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Stop Spammers Security \u003c 2022.6 - Unauthenticated PHP Object Injection","id":"CVE-2022-4120","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-26"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Stop Spammers Security \u003c 2023 - Reflected XSS","id":"CVE-2023-2488","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-05"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Stop Spammers \u003c 2021.9 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-05"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Stop Spammers Security \u003c 2023 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2023-2489","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-05"}],"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 administrators can inject stored XSS payloads into plugin settings, potentially leading to code execution in the context of other users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24517/"}
