An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, 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-2024-12173 exists.\n\nAffected product: Unknown Master Slider. 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-2024-12173/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-12173/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-12173","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-12173/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-12173","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pqch-79w5-3vfc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"High-privilege users can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized settings in the Master Slider WordPress plugin, enabling stored XSS attacks.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"WPScan","cpe":[{"product":"master_slider","vendor":"averta"}],"cvss":{"score":3.5,"severity":"low","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"The Master Slider  WordPress plugin before 3.10.5 does not sanitise and escape some of its settings, which could allow high privilege users such as Editor and above 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":"Master Slider \u003c 3.10.5 - Editor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-12173","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Other in Security Center","id":"CVE-2024-12174"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in WP Courses LMS – Online Courses Builder, eLearning Courses, Courses Solution, Education Courses","id":"CVE-2024-12172"},"products":["Master Slider"],"published":"2025-02-19","related":[{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"WordPress Master Slider plugin \u003c= 3.9.5 - PHP Object Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-32600","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-18"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Master Slider plugin \u003c= 3.10.0 - Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-37222","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-20"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"WordPress Master Slider Pro Plugin \u003c= 3.6.5 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2023-47508","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-16"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Master Slider Plugin \u003c= 3.11.0 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-58025","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-09-22"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Master Slider – Responsive Touch Slider \u003c= 3.9.10 - CSRF to slider deletion","id":"CVE-2024-6490","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-26"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress Master Slider plugin \u003c= 3.9.8 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-32580","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-04-18"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Master Slider – Responsive Touch Slider","id":"CVE-2025-5291","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-17"}],"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":"2025-02-21","vendors":["Unknown"]},"summary":"High-privilege users can inject malicious scripts via unsanitized settings in the Master Slider WordPress plugin, enabling stored XSS attacks.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-12173/"}
