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-2021-24558 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Project Status. 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-2021-24558/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24558/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24558","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24558/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24558","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6vf6-5443-jww8"],"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":"Reflected XSS in Project Status plugin allows attackers to inject scripts via unsanitized GET parameters, potentially compromising user sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"project_status","vendor":"3.7designs"}],"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 pspin_duplicate_post_save_as_new_post function of the Project Status WordPress plugin through 1.6 does not sanitise, validate or escape the post GET parameter passed to it before outputting it in an error message when the related post does not exist, leading to a reflected XSS 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":"Project Status \u003c= 1.6 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2021-24558","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Qyrr \u003c 0.7 - Authenticated (contributor+) Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2021-24559"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"M-vSlider \u003c= 2.1.3 - Authenticated (admin+) SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2021-24557"},"products":["Project Status"],"published":"2021-08-23","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":"Reflected XSS in Project Status plugin allows attackers to inject scripts via unsanitized GET parameters, potentially compromising user sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24558/"}
