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-2024-50461 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: WPDeveloper EmbedPress. 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-2024-50461/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50461/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-50461","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50461/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-50461","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mp23-j9p6-rgph"],"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":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts into pages via the EmbedPress plugin, potentially compromising user sessions or site integrity.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[{"product":"embedpress","vendor":"wpdeveloper"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/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 WPDeveloper EmbedPress embedpress allows Stored XSS.This issue affects EmbedPress: from n/a through \u003c= 4.0.14.","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 EmbedPress plugin \u003c= 4.0.14 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-50461","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 Interactive World Map plugin \u003c= 3.4.4 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-50462"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Firelight Lightbox plugin \u003c= 2.3.3 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-50460"},"products":["EmbedPress"],"published":"2024-10-28","related":[{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"WordPress EmbedPress plugin \u003c= 4.0.9 - Local File Inclusion vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-43328","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-19"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress EmbedPress plugin \u003c= 4.0.8 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-43936","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-29"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"WordPress EmbedPress plugin \u003c= 3.9.8 - Broken Access Control vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-31284","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-09"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in EmbedPress – PDF Embedder, Embed YouTube Videos, 3D FlipBook, Social feeds, Docs \u0026 more","id":"CVE-2024-11203","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-28"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"EmbedPress \u003c= 3.9.10 - Authenticated(Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via PDF Widget URL","id":"CVE-2024-1565","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-13"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in EmbedPress – PDF Embedder, Embed YouTube Videos, 3D FlipBook, Social feeds, Docs \u0026 more","id":"CVE-2024-5571","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-05"}],"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":"2026-05-11","vendors":["WPDeveloper"]},"summary":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts into pages via the EmbedPress plugin, potentially compromising user sessions or site integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50461/"}
