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-2024-56268 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: hookandhook Post Grid Elementor Addon. 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-2024-56268/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-56268/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-56268","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-56268/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-56268","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8322-9v37-rr6q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress plugin","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts into the Post Grid Elementor Addon plugin, potentially compromising user sessions or executing code in the browser.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Patchstack","cpe":[],"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 hookandhook Post Grid Elementor Addon post-grid-elementor-addon.This issue affects Post Grid Elementor Addon: from n/a through \u003c= 2.0.18.","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 Post Grid Elementor Addon plugin \u003c= 2.0.18 - Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-56268","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 WP SecureSubmit plugin \u003c= 1.5.20 - Sensitive Data Exposure vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-56270"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress Interactive UK Map plugin \u003c= 3.4.8 - CSRF to Stored Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-56267"},"products":["Post Grid Elementor Addon"],"published":"2025-01-02","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":["hookandhook"]},"summary":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts into the Post Grid Elementor Addon plugin, potentially compromising user sessions or executing code in the browser.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-56268/"}
