Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-0561 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Ultimate Posts Widget. 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-2024-0561/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0561/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-0561","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0561/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-0561","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hv62-rcrq-hx82"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Admins can inject malicious scripts via widget options in Ultimate Posts Widget, enabling stored XSS attacks in multisite environments.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"ultimate_posts_widget","vendor":"inisev"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","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 Ultimate Posts Widget WordPress plugin before 2.3.1 does not validate and escape some of its Widget options before outputting them back in attributes, which could allow high privilege users such as admin to perform Stored Cross-Site Scripting attacks even when the unfiltered_html capability is disallowed (for example in multisite setup)","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Ultimate Posts Widget \u003c 2.3.1 - Admin+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-0561","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Kernel: use-after-free after removing device in wb_inode_writeback_end in mm/page-writeback.c","id":"CVE-2024-0562"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in Red Hat 3scale API Management Platform 2","id":"CVE-2024-0560"},"products":["Ultimate Posts Widget"],"published":"2024-03-11","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":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-31","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"Admins can inject malicious scripts via widget options in Ultimate Posts Widget, enabling stored XSS attacks in multisite environments.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0561/"}
