CVE-2024-53757: WP Find Your Nearest plugin can let attackers inject code

CVE-2024-53757 · published 1 year ago
Summary

The WP Find Your Nearest plugin (versions up to 0.3.1) does not properly clean user‑supplied data when generating pages, allowing a stored cross‑site scripting attack. An attacker who can add content could place malicious scripts that run in visitors' browsers, potentially stealing information or hijacking sessions. Update the plugin to a patched version or remove it if no longer needed, and review any existing content for injected code.
