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-2024-23508 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: bPlugins PDF Poster – PDF Embedder Plugin for WordPress. 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-2024-23508/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-23508/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-23508","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-23508/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-23508","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r8vw-x62m-xcj4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Reflected XSS in PDF Poster plugin allows attackers to inject scripts, potentially leading to code execution in user browsers.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"pdf_poster","vendor":"bplugins"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') vulnerability in bPlugins PDF Poster – PDF Embedder Plugin for WordPress allows Reflected XSS.This issue affects PDF Poster – PDF Embedder Plugin for WordPress: from n/a through 2.1.17.","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":"WordPress PDF Poster - PDF Embedder Plugin for WordPress Plugin \u003c= 2.1.17 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)","id":"CVE-2024-23508","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"WordPress Don't Muck My Markup plugin \u003c= 1.8 - Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-23510"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress InstaWP Connect plugin \u003c= 0.1.0.9 - SQL Injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-23507"},"products":["PDF Poster – PDF Embedder Plugin for WordPress"],"published":"2024-01-31","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":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-28","vendors":["bPlugins"]},"summary":"Reflected XSS in PDF Poster plugin allows attackers to inject scripts, potentially leading to code execution in user browsers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-23508/"}
