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-2021-24543 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown jQuery Reply to Comment. 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-2021-24543/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24543/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24543","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24543/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24543","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c2qq-rpxf-6qmx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized settings, leading to stored XSS and potential session hijacking in the jQuery Reply to Comment plugin.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"jquery-reply-to-comment","vendor":"jquery-reply-to-comment_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"},{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"The jQuery Reply to Comment WordPress plugin through 1.31 does not have any CSRF check when saving its settings, nor sanitise or escape its 'Quote String' and 'Reply String' settings before outputting them in Comments, leading to a Stored Cross-Site Scripting issue.","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":"jQuery Reply to Comment \u003c= 1.31 - CSRF to Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24543","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Responsive WordPress Slider \u003c= 2.2.0 - Subscriber+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24544"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Wonder PDF Embed \u003c 1.7 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24541"},"products":["jQuery Reply to Comment"],"published":"2021-10-25","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":"Attackers can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized settings, leading to stored XSS and potential session hijacking in the jQuery Reply to Comment plugin.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24543/"}
