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-2021-24988 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Unknown WP RSS Aggregator – News Feeds, Autoblogging, Youtube Video Feeds and More. 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-2021-24988/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24988/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-24988","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24988/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-24988","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gp23-wr4g-cj6r"],"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":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated subscribers can inject malicious scripts via the addon parameter in the System Info dashboard due to missing sanitization and authorization checks.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"wp_rss_aggregator","vendor":"wprssaggregator"}],"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-862","name":"Missing Authorization"},{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"},{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The WP RSS Aggregator WordPress plugin before 4.19.3 does not sanitise and escape data before outputting it in the System Info admin dashboard, which could lead to a Stored XSS issue due to the wprss_dismiss_addon_notice AJAX action missing authorisation and CSRF checks, allowing any authenticated users, such as subscriber to call it and set a malicious payload in the addon parameter.","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":"WP RSS Aggregator \u003c 4.19.3 - Subscriber+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24988","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Accept Donations with PayPal \u003c 1.3.4 - Arbitrary Post Deletion via CSRF","id":"CVE-2021-24989"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Super Socializer \u003c 7.13.30 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24987"},"products":["WP RSS Aggregator – News Feeds, Autoblogging, Youtube Video Feeds and More"],"published":"2021-12-27","related":[{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"WP RSS Aggregator \u003c 4.20 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2022-0189","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-28"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"WP RSS Aggregator \u003c 4.19.2 - Admin+ Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2021-24768","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-29"},{"cvss_score":4.4,"headline":"WP RSS Aggregator \u003c= 4.23.4 - Authenticated (Admin+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via RSS Feed Source","id":"CVE-2024-0630","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-05"},{"cvss_score":3.8,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in WP RSS Aggregator – RSS Import, News Feeds, Feed to Post, and Autoblogging","id":"CVE-2024-0628","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-07"}],"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 subscribers can inject malicious scripts via the addon parameter in the System Info dashboard due to missing sanitization and authorization checks.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-24988/"}
